The US State Department’s official page on its illegal war with Iran admits it launched the war at Israel’s request. It also adds that it has confirmed this repeatedly to the United Nations:
US in bed with Israel
Not that this is any surprise to anyone paying attention, but it’s nice to see it admitted. ‘Operation Epic Fury’ has been dubbed ‘Operation Epstein Distraction‘ for Trump appearing to launch it to divert media attention from his ‘alleged’ crimes committed with the ‘deceased’ serial child-rapist. But as Epstein was/is an Israeli spy, there’s really no conflict between the two positions.
‘Request’ is doing some heavy lifting, though. Secretary of State Marco Rubio admitted that Israel manoeuvred Trump into the war. Netanyahu’s furious visit to jolt Trump into action has led many to conclude that the wanted Israeli war criminal threatened to release some of Epstein’s worst info on Trump to twist his arm. Certainly that’s what ex-Israeli intelligence officer Ari Ben-Menashe believes.
Even Trump’s ‘MAGA’ base in the US is getting tired of Trump’s ‘Israel first’ policies, however. So seeing it in print that the US is wasting hundreds of billions and most of its weapon stocks to appease Benjamin Netanyahu and his imperial ambitions is not likely to fly too well.

“Blackmailed into this” implies that, left to his own devices, Trump wouldn’t be doing evil anyway. I find that hard to believe.
I’m not saying he wasn’t convinced by others instead of just coming up with the idea on his own, just that calling it “blackmail” is too exculpatory.
Wtf are you talking about? No it doesn’t imply that! Blackmailing somebody into something means the person wouldn’t have done this specific thing without the blackmail. Nobody thinks a person who was blackmailed would have been a saint who can’t do wrong without the blackmail.
Well, nobody except you it seems to appear.
