Re: Why is France/Germany doing nothing to check Israel?
My educated guess, Cenk, is kompromat; same as Biden. Money ALONE was not enough for Biden to take the politically damaging position he did.

He’ll do a strike if Congress calls for it; he’s a coward.
All eyes on the war powers resolution sponsored by Massey! If he does a strike absent any evidence and the DNI brief concluding there are no WMDs, he will eventually get his ass impeached…
If he had served in Vietnam as he should have, perhaps his take on this would be a little different. Maybe.
Kerry had served and was shot at, and negotiated a working treaty before Trump tore it up. Since Israel has nukes, it’s a fantasy, given their preemptive actions, to think Iran will agree to ZERO production of uranium.
This is being driven by a NUTanyahoo doctrine of UNmeasured response. “Oh. you killed ~600 Israelis? We get to have a genocide of hundreds of thousands!” [Go ahead: quibble with that number! Spin statistics and blame Hamas, at the end of the day it will be MANY multiples of civilians compared to the number of people killed on October 7th -and most conVENient you don’t allow the press in to track the murders, as the US did in Iraq. It’s been so over the top, IDF soldiers are calling it out.] “Oh: you are extracting uranium that is presently not at bomb levels? We’ll bomb you!”
Pakistan, India, North Korea -they all have nukes. And consider the fever dream violent fantasies North Korea has had about bombing the US! Yet we’re not “preemptively” bombing them (though I’ll grant you it’s a problem that has to be figured out, as we did with Russia…)
