Israel launches preemptive strike against Iran

President Donald Trump said Sunday that the U.S. is not involved in Israel's military strikes but "it's possible we could get involved."

In an interview with ABC News' Rachel Scott, Trump said he's open to Russian President Vladimir Putin serving as a mediator in the conflict — something he said the Russian president pitched in their phone call on Saturday.

Interesting that North. Korea was allowed to go on and develop its nuclear missiles without being attacked for it. North Korea went on to threaten the U. S and South Korea with nuclear attacks if provoked. But Iran can't even so much as be allowed to develop any. I guess compared with the U. S. and North Korea that Israel and Iran are just too close to each other for comfort. And it doesn't help that North Korea borders on China. But the latest United States intelligence assessment warned that North Korea's nuclear missiles could overwhelm the defense system protecting the U.S. homeland within a decade.

Netanyahu words somewhat related to the subject, “These people who chant, death to America, tried to assassinate President Trump twice, kill 241 of your Marines in Beirut, killed and injured thousands of American soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq, try to bomb a restaurant in Washington D.C., chant death to America, burn the American flag, do you want these people to have nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them to your cities?” Netanyahu said. “Of course not. So, we’re defending ourselves, but we’re also defending the world.”

But what about North Korea?

Iran is on and near a whole bunch of oil. North Korea isn't.

Also North Korea isn't going to do anything stupid without China giving the OK and the Chinese would rather dominate the world financially than militarily.

Im not comfortable with either having nuclear weapons but I can see why the west has Iran on a tighter leash

While the stock price had been unstable, it's rather alarming it has become more stable since early May and now keeps wanting to go up. If you against war, that is a bad sign.

North Korea also showed they can't successfully launch a ship (something folks have been doing in several different ways for a few hundred years...) without F-ing it up, so they still don't register as anything more than a yappy yorkie.
