The world awaits Israel's promised response to Iran's recent ballistic missile barrage, a response that President Biden says he will not support.
When asked by reporters this week whether or not he backs Israel retaliating against Iran by blowing up its nuclear sites, Biden stated clearly that "the answer is no."

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his security cabinet are saying that a major retaliation strike is imminent, regardless of what Washington thinks about it.
"It is not certain that Washington will agree with us, but it knows that we have to respond," an Israeli official familiar with the matter told local media.
(Related: Even though Biden says he is against the idea, Israel is still planning to move forward with more attacks on Iran.)
U.S. seeking "alignment" with Israel before backing further attacks
It is not so much that the Biden regime opposes Israel responding to Iran as it is the White House simply wanting to have more authority over how Israel responds. Washington says it wants better "alignment" with Israel before any further attacks are launched.
U.S. deputy secretary Kurt Campbell described what is currently transpiring in the Middle East as "a moment of peril," adding that more communication is needed between the U.S. and Israel on how to proceed.
"I think we recognize as important as a response of some kind should be, there is a recognition that the region is really on a knife's edge, and real concerns about an even broader escalation or a continuing one," Campbell said.
Israel is also facing more attacks from Hezbollah in response to Israel's continued attacks on southern Lebanon. As new strikes destroy buildings in central Beirut, Hezbollah is reportedly planning to retaliate by bombarding Tel Aviv with missiles.
Iran, meanwhile, has closed its airspace and diverted all civilian flights as it awaits Israel's response. Tehran's Imam Khomeini International Airport is also said to be shutting down temporarily in anticipation of another Israeli strike.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian says his country is not at all interested in participating in a war with Israel, but if "Israel acts against us, we will respond."
Biden told participants in a recent call with the G7 that his regime is "discussing with the Israelis what they are going to do."
"All seven of us agree that they have a right to respond," Biden said, referring to Israel. "We are giving them advice. I will talk to Bibi relatively soon."
The Biden regime has done next to nothing to even try to help the millions of victims of Hurricane Helene who are still without power, and in some cases water and road access, all throughout the Appalachian. Instead, he is dead-set focused on Israel and its interests.
In case you have not noticed, Israel is almost always the one that provokes its neighbors, who then respond, as Iran and Lebanon are doing, with their own attacks. After that happens, Israel tries to play the victim as if it was the one that was attacked first in order to justify even more attacks.
Quoting Netanyahu, who stated to reporters that "whoever attacks us, we will attack them," a commenter had this to say about Netanyahu's deception:
"Netanyahu conveniently leaving out all the unprovoked attacks he launched on Lebanon, Syria and Iran. Ever the victim."
