1. I wish the media would stop repeating Netanyahu/Saudi talking points

This attack is about regime change, not degrading Iran’s nuclear program that is still primitive and not going anywhere. I am not completely against knocking the Iranian regime out if there is a window to do so, but Israeli and American governments need to be honest about objectives when going to war, or a single setback can turn the tide. The moral high ground is critical in any conflict, and the U.S. and Israel actually risk losing it right out of the gate against an enemy that has supported some of the worst terrorist organizations of the last quarter century.

Lies create a debt to the truth that eventually needs to be repaid.
