Israel holds the blame for every single innocent death in this conflict.

People need to remember that Israel started this, pre emptively with US backing.

For sure. People who take a sports gambler's approach to geopolitics are pushing the angle Iran shouldn't have waited for such provocations. In fact many are calling for non-combatants to be struck. I think taking out public utilities is sufficient to make them flee. Since they have already cut off everything to Gaza, it should be done.

That's twice now they've threatened to attack US bases and twice they haven't done it, this is starting to seem like a negotiating tactic rather than a threat.

It is an American proxy war, after all. Everyone knows Taiwan is to East Asia what Israel is to West Asia...

The Israelis are there to mitigate the US shipping bodybags across the Atlantic. They should have taken a lesson from years of the Ukraine proxy war

So, the war in Ukraine is a proxy war between North Korea and USA?
