Trump said recently that Israel PM Netanyahu backed out at the last minute to not participate in taking out Iranian general Soleimani in 2020.
I see why Bibi would have backed out, Israel does most of its work covertly without taking any credit or leaving any evidence that would tie it back to them.
If you do say to world that you did it, expect the people in the affected country to ask their government for revenge, otherwise that government or party is dead for life. Had the US not announced that we did it, Iran would have not attacked the air force base in Iraq. They would have blamed Israel but they don't have the proof.
Just like Russia doesn't have the proof as to who blew up the Nordstream pipe line. Had sleepy joe mumbled that by mistake in a press conference or had he announced it in a address after blowing up the pipeline then Russia would have retaliated directly.
So I do not know why a former UN ambassador like Nikki Haley or Sen Lindsey Graham openly call for war with Iran. Alteast Graham is a career neo con who gets a boner when ever he hears the word war he has nevered married and has no kids. So he doesn't really care if we start ww3.
Nikki Haley is just in it to get rich nothing else. She wrote in her resignation letter to Trump
"I expect you will appreciate my sense that returning from government to the private sector is not a step down but a step up"
You don't go from being in significant debt while still being the NC governor and UN ambassador but get uber rich after getting into the private sector just giving speeches and being on the board of Boeing.
This is a woman who changed her name to blend in.
