I dont find that believable argument at all. USA in fact can not attack along of Israel. Nothing prevents then from removing embargo, tho that is not relevant.

USA can tell Israel to not attack. Full stop. It can even tell Israel they will give them less support. And dont tell me that Trump administration would be afraid to pressure or even bully other goverment. If USA did not wanted this war, it would not happened.

Third, USA had option of approaching negotiations seriously. It simply did not.

> US was "forced" into preventive strikes against Iran military installations, and into an offensive war, without any preparation.

This is nonsense. It was not preventive attack, it was active first strike attack against opponent that is not much threat right now.

USA was not in defense. It was not forced to attack either.
