@ianbremmer Netanyahu was a dictator-in-training before the 2023 Oct 7th attack by Hamas and now his overwhelming retaliation operation in Gaza Strip tells us that he’s a full dictator-in-action. Oct 7th was the best thing that happened for him. The cover he has been waiting for.
@ianbremmer The big difference is it will take fewer escalatory cycles before Israel ends up using nuclear weapons. The Iranians are itching for this fight, and the United States is either going to have to step in with hard power or we’re going to see the worst case results.
@ianbremmer Nothing that a fresh shipment of 2K pound laser guided munitions and 25 new F35s can’t rectify these days. 🥃
@ianbremmer Dimona will be targeted if Iran's nuclear sites come under attack. Iran has now proven it could take that out, by having 5 ballistic missiles hit their targets in Israel.
@ianbremmer Like going out on the town on somebody else’s dime!
@ianbremmer Ukraine gets massive aid but they are running their own on their own. Israel gets same kind of aid but we are running their war. Is this right Ian?
@ianbremmer its a tough crowd we remember what happened to Rabin.
@ianbremmer But if they do attack, it’s deescalation, right?
