Netanyahu Warns of Iran Missile Drill, Seeks More US Bombs
The drumbeat of 'imminent Iranian threat' is a familiar tune. Netanyahu and his allies have played this exact melody for decades, from 2002 to 2006, 2014, and now again, always preceding calls for more aggressive action. Despite unnamed 'U.S. intelligence' sources telling Axios there's 'no indication an Iranian attack is imminent,' Israel's 'risk tolerance' suddenly plummets. This is the script:
manufacture panic, then demand an even larger blank check for military 'defense' – which often translates to offensive operations – from an eager US administration. The public record shows that organizations like AIPAC have spent millions, specifically donating over $16 million in 2022 alone , to ensure this narrative remains unchallenged in Washington. One might wonder if these 'warnings' are
less about actual threat assessment and more about setting the stage for future escalation. How many times can a 'wolf' be cried before one realizes it's part of a very lucrative performance? It seems a substantial portion of the US political establishment is always ready to applaud, especially when billions in US weapons aid and military-industrial profits are on the line, courtesy of compliant
politicians.
