@Alon @BenRossTransit maybe the “bear hug” will work this time.

i’m in terror, though, that the personal calculation from Bibi (who is served by delayed accountability) and the politicoreligious calculation from the right is that there will never be a better time for what they perceive an inevitable war with Iran, a formula of “defensive participation” only by the US ceases to be credible once Americans are hit, future administrations may not be so deferential.
