Clown World: US Told Iran Their Attack Had to Be “Within Limits”?

According to a Turkish diplomatic source, Reuters, and the Jerusalem Post, Iran notified Turkey in advance of its planned attack on Israel. The report also said that the US informed Iran through Turkey that the Iranian attack on Israel had to be “within limits.”

What kind of foreign policy tells the enemy that the attack on its ally had to be “within limits.” Sounds like a clown world foreign policy to us.

The Jerusalem Post said the US told them the Iranian action had to be “within certain limits.”

In response, Iran said the reaction would be a response to Israel’s attack on its embassy in Damascus and that it would not go beyond this.”

Turkey’s foreign ministry later confirmed the contacts, saying Ankara had called for restraint and warned of a regional war if tensions escalated further.

A Turkish security source said CIA chief William Burns had spoken to Ibrahim Kalin, head of Turkey’s MIT intelligence agency, over the Eid al-Fitr holidays and asked him to act as a “mediator” in the Israel-Iran tensions.

If the report is accurate, Secretary of State Antony Blinken and his comrades gave tacit approval to the attack on Israel. It sent the wrong message. It seems like a disastrous foreign policy.

What do you think?

The accusations appear credible. How else did this Administration know precisely when Iran was going to attack Israel. What kind of message does this send to America’s allies? When an American President Green lights an enemy attack on a close allie, all credibility, and respect for the United States goes out the window.

Iran felt it had to retaliate for the bombing of their embassy in Syria. But retaliations have to stop to avoid escalation. Biden’s state department is awful, but it had no power to approve or disapprove of the retaliation, or the embassy bombing.

Didn’t Biden say pretty much the same thing to Putin, just before the Russians invaded Ukraine? How’d that work out?

So why do Hollywood Jews still continue to support Biden? – especially when Donald Trump was the best friend Israel ever had in the White House.

Why would you think that all “Jews” are the same? There are various ethnic Jews, religious Jews, traditional Jews, zionists, secular Jews. Israel is run by secular zionist Jews. They are not religious people. But somehow, many US Christians have an extreme devotion to them, which is not at all mutual. Hollywood Jews tend to be far left. But why would we worry about what anyone in Hollywood thinks?

I’m stunned that some country hasn’t taken advantage of the evil, corrupt, bankrupt, amateurish US feral government and attacked this country and blown it to hell.
