“The United States has indications that Iran is preparing to imminently launch a ballistic missile attack against Israel. We are actively supporting defensive preparations to defend Israel against this attack. A direct military attack from Iran against Israel will carry severe consequences for Iran,” a senior White House official said in a statement.

Tensions between Israel and Iran have ratcheted up significantly in recent weeks as Israel has stepped up its efforts against Hezbollah in Lebanon, an Iran-backed militant group. Israel on Monday launched a ground operation in southern Lebanon targeting Hezbollah.
Yeah Trump warned us.

We better not get dragged into any wider conflict.
Let them fight it out and don't send our kids into harms way.
May peace prevail.

Well that may be, but I'm so thankful we have the adults back in the white house to deal with it.

All it will take is us reaching out to Iran through backchannels, reminding them that we have a guided missile submarine with 150 tomahawk cruise missiles sitting somewhere close by, for the Iranians to pull back on this decision.

WASHINGTON — The USS Georgia, an Ohio-class nuclear-powered submarine capable of carrying more than 150 Tomahawk cruise missiles, has passed through the Suez Canal after several weeks in the Mediterranean, the Pentagon confirmed on Tuesday.
The United States deployed the USS Georgia in response to retaliation threats from Iran and Hezbollah against Israel for twin assassinations of Hezbollah’s top commander, Fuad Shukr, in Beirut and Hamas’ political leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran last month.
The Georgia has remained in the Mediterranean since then as Israel prepared for Hezbollah’s response, which the Israeli Air Force preempted with strikes across southern Lebanon in late August. Hezbollah then fired more than 320 drones and rockets into Israel.

And we don’t even know who’s running this country.

Can we just drop a nuke on that whole area of the world already?
or an air-fuel like back in the Trump days?

The idea of dropping an air-blast bomb – even if it’s the largest nonnuclear ordnance ever used by the U.S. in combat – to target fighters holed up in tunnels deep underground might at first seem counterintuitive. The GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast Bomb, or "Mother of All Bombs" (MOAB), which the Air Force unleashed on ISIS fighters and tunnels Thursday in […] Afghanistan’s Nangarhar Province, never actually struck the ground. But the massive crunch of air pressure created by the nearly 22,000-pound MOAB would have wiped out anyone in the vicinity, and certainly sent a clear signal that the Trump administration is willing to use unprecedented force.
Unlike a bomb designed to actually penetrate a building or the ground, the MOAB (also called a fuel-air bomb) has a “proximity fuse” on its nose that ignites the warhead when it reaches a certain altitude—which might be anywhere between 50 and 1,000 feet—says Edward Priest, a former Air Force Special Operations combat controller […]. “When they blow up, they blast fuel into the air,” Priest explains. “That fuel atomizes. Then there’s a secondary explosion that lights the fuel that’s been atomized.”
An air blast bomb “doesn’t throw out a lot of fragmentation like you’d expect from a normal bomb—it’s all blast overpressure, which can blow down trees and use the trees themselves as the fragmentation,” Priest says. “That type of bomb wouldn’t work well, for example, to destroy tanks, although the overpressure would kill the people in them. You’d overpressure the people hiding in the caves there. You’d never find them—it just blows your lungs out of your mouth. It kind of turns you inside out.”

You're assuming logic with illogical people.
