    I mean, the article said that Israel didn’t give a commitment. You can’t exactly lie in not giving a commitment to do something.

    The one who said that they wouldn’t support a strike on Iran’s nuclear program strike was Biden, not Israel.

      In poker if you have the nuts, you win when your opponent thinks you don’t, and if you don’t have the nuts, you win when your opponent thinks you do.

      I don’t trust anything that comes from Israel right now, regardless of it the statement being positive or negative or neutral.
