So, wait...we forced Israel to force us to "proactively defend" ourselves by attacking Iran without provocation from them? Which means, if I understand this properly, that, per Trump and Rubio, we actually were the imminent threat to which we were responding? That's some 4D chess going on there.

After what has occurred over the past year, it is astounding that 38% of the U.S. population still approves of DJT. Canada can never consider the U.S. a reliable partner or ally until there is a massive overhaul of the American education system.

US lawmakers slam State Department over lack of help for Americans stuck in Mideast
U.S. lawmakers on Tuesday criticized the State Department for urging Americans in the Middle East to evacuate three days after the U.S.-Israeli air war against Iran began, saying the late warning and widespread flight disruptions showed poor planning and “incompetence.”
