“[As for] the problem of keeping Israel out of the war, there were few things the President and his top aides worried about more,” explained one White House advisor in retrospect. 3 The U.S. decision to side-line and restrain Israel was successful due to a balanced strategy of positive and negative inducements. It was carefully crafted and executed by President George Bush and his most senior advisors. 4
MERIA: Friendly Restraint: U.S.-Israel Relations During the Gulf Crisis of 1990-1991
Ahhh sooo we have already fought in one regime change war for Israel and now we will fight another one? And Rabbi, where were YOU from 2001 to 2021? Because I was busy bringing home the bodies of dead American men and women.
No Sympathy, No Charity or whatever your name is . . . I thank you for your service. I’m an ACS USCG Chaplain and my son is a U.S. Sailor. I take military service very seriously, and I know what it means to serve one’s country. I suggest you’re engaging in revisionist history. Operation Desert Shield and Desert Storm were launched in response to Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait. Operation Iraqi Freedom was launched by George W. Bush as Part II of Desert Storm, to remove Saddam.
It was launched to remove Saddam under false pretenses. Much like this attack on Iran. Again, after Iraq launched SCUDS at Israel in 91, when America went in 2003, where was Israel? Sitting on its ass. Now we are going to head to war again for Israel? Ahh yes, sailors, famously at risk in land wars in SW Asia. Must be nice to advocate for all of this while having NO SKIN in the game whatsoever.
DOING EXACTLY WHAT THEY WERE TOLD TO DO.
