People with complete understanding and deep knowledge of the Middle East know better than to militarily involve the US in these conflicts. There is no one in the current US regime with knowledge or understanding.

"If you’re among the vast sea of Americans who remain enthusiastically grateful for vaccines, the time for pushing back against Kennedy isn’t later, when he’ll likely be ratcheting up his program to 'reevaluate' longstanding pediatric vaccines."
