All of us, every single man, woman, and child on the face of the Earth were born with the same unalienable rights; to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And, if the governments of the world can't get that through their thick skulls, then, regime change will be necessary.

What does everyone want him to say ...... "Yes, we'll allow Iraqi airspace to be used by the Jews for an attack on Shiite Iran"

Or..... "We will shoot down any Israeli jet that penetrates Iraqi Airspace".
That would leave us entirely holding the bag on destroying Iran's Facilities.
There isn't a good .... public ..... answer to that loaded question.
...... personally, I dont think Israel has an attack via aircraft option for Iran ...... unless the Saudis let them refuel. I dont think they dont have anything with the necessary range.

It is gonna be hard enough to explain why we let Israeli missiles traverse Iraqi airspace, but attempted to shoot down the Iranian missiles that followed, when the time comes.
Broadcasting our biased intentions ahead of time will only make that decision more politically difficult after the fact.
All of our actions are based on a lack of nerve if not outright cowardice. We are behaving exactly like the Allies in 1936. There is one thing that is ABSOLUTELY certain and that is that war is coming no matter how hard we try to avoid it. The longer we wait, the worse it's going to be for everyone.
I hate as much as anyone else to face the horrendous and unpredictable reality, but reality it is.
Yep.
