Israel's civilian leadership seems determined to destroy it....

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz:

The IDF has been instructed by the Prime Minister and by me to prepare for an independent Israeli military operation against Iran. pic.twitter.com/B2ABQguON8

Just plain wow.

Independent action against Iran?  Are they freaking nuts?  I don't see how that's of benefit to the state of Israel.

Their economy is hurting.  Their military is tired.  They're running low on munitions and if they look at what's in the US stockpile then they'll realize we're not flowing with replacements.

I don't understand the thinking.

I've got many Israel haters here but can someone that DOES NOT hate the state explain to me the thinking.
