The actual conviction that a fucking shia state is going to create a hegemony without a belligerent Israel to counterbalance them is laughable. The only reason they get as much support as they do now is because everyone fucking hates us more. Turkey, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia are plenty to counterbalance Iran when push comes to shove. Though I don’t consider the Saudis much better. Pan Arabisim specifically discounts Persians and they will react to Iran being a significant threat, even if Turkey and Egypt play nice right now.
The only thing Israel will give the US is a causus beli to go to war with Iran, which is a war the US certainly does not have the conviction to win.
You speak with both sides of your mouth. Somehow America is preventing Iran from invading Israel while also Iran is a loose cannon that will invade anyway. It’s horseshit. The one who’s going to start a war is Israel. They’re the ones committing genocide and they’re the ones who actually put boots on the ground in other countries while flagrantly violating the Geneva convention. That’s the powder keg the US has enabled and will continue to enable by giving full support to fascist governments. It won’t provide stability or security. All it provides is an absolute liability. And you’re beyond delusional if you think Americans will accede to the Pentagon’s war plans once the bodies start flying in.
