31. Kamala Harris would not have joined Israel against Iran
Fri May 29, 2026, 02:51 PM
Friday

However, Israel was already destroying most of Gaza, increasing West Bank aggression and had already attacked Hezbollah with the exploding pagers

It was clear that Netanyahu did not listen to Biden as Gaza became an increasing disaster. They might not have attacked Iran on their own, but they would still have worked to take over vast amounts of Gaza and possibly Lebanon.

In addition to all the other reasons for Israel to continue war, every Israeli news source has mentioned that Netanyahu is advantaged politically by the country being at war.
