Related: About this forumWill Netanyahu Incite a War with Iran? Leaked U.S. Docs Detail Israel's Attack Plans
The Biden administration has launched a probe after highly classified U.S. intelligence documents were posted online showing that Israel is taking steps to launch a retaliatory attack against Iran. Meanwhile, a drone hit Benjamin Netanyahu's seaside home Saturday in what the Israeli prime minister has called an assassination attempt by "Iran's proxy Hezbollah." As tensions between Iran and Israel heat up, we go to Tehran to speak with Hassan Ahmadian, a professor at the University of Tehran, who says Netanyahu and Israel have continually instigated violence in the region while "trying to tell the world that it's Iran that is the problem."

(31,488 posts)1. This is a flawed source.
I believe it is anti-Semitic.
When PBS is considered anti-Semitic were in Bizarro World.

whose host, Amy Goodman, is of Jewish heritage:

In fact, her maternal grandfather was an Orthodox rabbi.
So I'll go out on a limb and say yep, this is probably not an anti-semitic source.

and you retaliate, you didn't "incite" a war. You reacted to the country that incited a war.

They've been at war for decades now.
