Honestly, I am not usually the one arguing for restraint.. but in this particular case.. The Iran attack hurt no one, and allowed them to save face.

I would encourage Israel in this particular case to just let it go.

I’m with you.

Iran is hoping for a lopsided response to gain sympathy from Russia- kind of like what Ukraine has done in America. The Iranians are just goading the Israelis.

On a side note, Netanyahu worries me. Clearly he’s been in power for way too long. I think it’s time for a regime change in both Israel and Iran.

I feel like we need more conservatism in America and less conservatism in the Middle East.

By “no one” you mean the 8 year old Bedouin girl who died a painful death from shrapnel, right?

Not sure how people forget her.

“I would encourage Israel in this particular case to just let it go.”

Let me guess. You’re one of those folks that believes that negotiating with terrorists will work in your favor.

I’m curious.

If you had a neighbor down the street that hated you and wanted you dead... and that had been giving money and “projectiles” to your next-door neighbors with which to attack you and your house... and that finally directly attacked your house with eggs, toilet paper and various other substances and similar projectiles...costing you hundreds of thousands of dollars that you could ill afford...

would you just “let it go”? Or would you, perhaps, figure that if you just “let it go”, it would happen again, and again, and again. I’m asking because this curious stance of “no retaliation” is not, by any means, a Conservative one. It’s more like a RINOish stance. Or worse... a SOS leftist one. And it sure as hell isn’t a “biblical” stance.
