Once the US carrier group arrives aside from the Gaza ground assault I think there will finally be an Israeli air force strike against Iran that they have wanted to do for decades, then the US will have a full blown Middle East war to contend with. And oil price will double? https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2023/10/9/netanyahu-is-drawing-the-us-into-war-with-iran

- Saddam Hussein MADE THE SAME MISTAKE against Iran and the Iranians who were MUCH WEAKER THEN and Saddam had the OVERWHELMING SUPPORT of Europe and the US - the Iran-Iraq WAR was BRUTAL and ENDED UP in a STALEMATE with HORRENDOUS LOSSES on BOTH SIDES * NOT the WALK IN THE PARK that Saddam THOUGHT z173

I think there is no need to bomb Iran. It would start W.W. 3 for sure. All the Israelis need to do is blockade the goods and food coming in from the Mediterranian, (Isuspect that is how the rockets came to Gaza by UN food aid) and keep the water and electrictricty turned off for THREE DAYS. Hamas would give up, or die of thirst. The second choice is better, I think.

The only way they bomb Iran is with US support. Don't think Israel has the weapons to do it.

Agree on that one. There isn't an off topic discussion regarding oil. Oil is the most geoeconomics linked commodity there is.
