Breaking | Three Palestinian killed in an Israeli airstrike bombing Mushtaha Street in the Shuja’iyya neighborhood, east of Gaza City.
"By bombing Iran, America has 'recovered its position as leader of the free world' while Israel 'has rediscovered its biblical warrior identity and has become the regional superpower in the Middle East.'
In support of this new order, messianic Orthodox and secular nationalist Israeli ideologies meet with Christian nationalist views. ...
There is one party that will benefit from the war: Russia."

"In the fantasy of the far right, the United States and Israel are making history and saving civilization. British commentator Melanie Phillips sees the war as 'the likely birth of a new world order pivoted around that alliance between America and Israel.'”

Who Benefits from the U.S.-Israel War on Iran?
The war will eventually backfire on Trump and Netanyahu, while Putin profitsRuth Ben-Ghiat (Lucid)
"While most combat operations have been undertaken by the US military, at considerable risk to US service members and costs borne by American taxpayers, the war was born, planned, and insisted upon by Israel, and its long-serving Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu."
"One prominent rationale for the Israeli-American attack on Iran is to bomb the country into friendliness to the US and Israel. ...
The real goals of Trump’s war cannot be found in his strategic vision, which is overshadowed, if it even exists, by a pinwheeling embrace of postures that serve his vanity and his short-term political interests."

How the Israeli Tail Wags the American Dog | The Nation
The US attack on Iran may be less about American security than about the priorities of Israel’s government.Ricky D'Ambrose (The Nation)
"Why has this relationship endured with such extraordinary durability for so long?
To answer that question requires looking beyond the ceremonial language of democracy and shared values that usually defines the alliance. It requires examining the historical forces that made the partnership possible—and the political structures that continue to sustain it."
"For generations the alliance between the United States and Israel has been treated in Washington as something close to unquestionable—an assumption embedded so deeply in American strategic thinking that it often appears less like a policy choice than a permanent feature of the geopolitical landscape.
Which raises a deeper question."

"But the oligarchy that runs American Jewish organizations, the large donors, the people who work for those very large donors, that is a very cloistered, self-enclosed world in many ways. And I think it shields people from an actual understanding, in some ways, of what’s happening in American society, about the suffering that Americans endure as a result of these wars," (continued in /4)
Beinart:
"[The US Jewish estabishment] can’t distinguish between what the Israeli government wants and what’s good for the American people.
And I think partly, this is a result of how cloistered the American Jewish establishment is. I’m not talking about American Jews in general. American Jews are widely integrated into American society in all kinds of ways."

The Danger This War Poses to American Jews
It’s Almost Guaranteed To Supercharge AntisemitismKen Silverman (The Beinart Notebook)
Both Jason Stanley and Peter Beinart ask today whether the Trump-Netanyahu war on Iran might step up antisemitism. Stanley says,
"Restrictions on speech critical of Israel lend unwarranted legitimacy to antisemitic ideologies. For the sake of both democracy and Jewish safety worldwide, it is therefore essential to allow citizens to freely criticize Israel without fear or sanction."
