Israel is dependent on the US, but does not have to be. They have nuclear weapons since 1967 and advanced ones since this time. Iran has yet to develop even one . That makes them a third world country. So do you really think that Israel would lie down and die before using their advanced arsenal of nuclear weapons? Give your head a shake! And for your comments, Israel didn’t want or start this war in Oct. of 2023. It was Gaza by firing over 5,000 rockets into Israel, each one a war crime because they were unguided and meant to kill men, women and children wherever they landed.
