Tonight’s missile and drone attacks against Israel underscore what ceasefire advocates have been saying for months: we’re at the precipice of all out region-wide war, and we need to step back from the brink. A 🧵

'President Joe Biden has privately expressed concern that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is trying to drag the U.S. more deeply into a broader conflict' Alas, we've seen that Biden's private concerns are worthless in terms of changing policy. nbcnews.com/news/world/liv…

US may soon be involved in three simultaneous wars. Biden outdoes all former presidents.

The US would rather risk a regional war than force Israel to stop committing a genocide against Palestinians. Imperialism truly is a death cult.

Arrow System shot down an Iranian Missile in ‘Space’.

Last time & first time in history it happened was when Yemen fired a missile at Eilat.

Very unique footage showing an exoatmospheric interception amid the Iranian ballistic missile attack, likely by the Arrow 3 air defense system.

Israel already debating military options which include long-range strikes on military bases or nuclear installations in Iran per The Economist

It’s amazing how different the level of interest is when Israel kills a bunch of Iranians in Syria, compared to these drones launched at Israel. I wonder what percentage of people commenting on this event know that Israel just did that and this is the response? It’s taken for…

The dumbest response imaginable

Israelis and their US/UK patrons knew exactly what was launched and when, had hours to track incoming, and yet it looks like several Iranian drones/missiles hit targets. Gonna be a lot of spin coming from Israeli/US missile defense industry marketing flaks.

Monday on the Hill

I am sure many Trump supporters chanting “Genocide Joe” just hate Biden but if polling is to be believed Republican support for Israel’s siege on Gaza has also crumbled.

I think it’s very possible that even some Republicans are genuinely outraged by footage of the horrors.

What on Earth are you talking about?

The eradication of the Palestinian people is now happening at an accelerating rate.

We need to bring this entire crisis to a halt - starting with putting an end to the genocide in Gaza

If anything should united the political spectrum I'd hope it would be opposition to genocide.

It should not be lost on anyone that the 'success' of the interception of the projectiles and drones is a product of the very deliberately telegraphed attack. This was choreographed for this outcome. What Israel and the US know is that next time it may not be.
