“the decision was not so much driven by new intelligence indicating an Iranian sprint for a nuclear weapon or any imminent threat to Israel. Rather, Israel seized on what it saw as a unique opportunity to execute plans, carefully laid months & years in advance”

So, again, if in line with Trump, you are out. And now Trump seems to be leaning towards Iran following Israel’s initiating strikes. We keep getting dragged into Israel’s wars, they need us, but pay us no heed. Are they truly an ally? Have they ever fought with us? No, only concern is THEIR safety.

Trump is illegally sending federal troops into California less than 24 hours after this. Let that sink in.
This is important insight. Elon is a fraud and megalomaniac just because he is going after Trump now we should not cheer him as a hero or indicate any change in his behavior.
Good on you for having ethical principles. Musk hasn't changed just because he's had a bust up with Trump; he's still an utterly vile fascist and white supremacist. If he ends up alienating both ends of the politics spectrum then so much the better.
