Even if the US refuses to participate which I find doubtful, how much does that matter if the Israeli fighter pilots are US trained, using US equipment, aeronautics and dropping US made bombs on Iran?
I mean yes there is a difference but it just feels pedantic.
Last I checked, Israel has 0 Supercarriers, that would be the difference. Our bloated military budget has developed the largest military ever, and Israel would love to be able to use that against Iran rather than face Iran alone.
It makes a lot of difference. Rockets cost a lot of money so they don’t have unlimited numbers. The same is true for air defense systems. There’s a finite number of rockets they can intercept at any given time. Hamas already discovered that limit for Iron Dome. Now think about the attack from Iran. It took rockets and jets with rockets from at least 3 militaries to stop all of them, and that was with days of warning to prepare. If Israel was fending them off alone, they wouldn’t have stopped 99% of them. Now consider a 10000 rocket salvo.
We have the numbers in what Iran says it spent, what Israel says it spent and what Israel said America spent.
35 million for Iran
Over a billion dollars for Israel
And, according to Israel, over a billion dollars for America.
The missile strike wasn’t a failure. It was a huge success for Iran. The screening cruise missiles and drones were there to be destroyed so the khybar ballistic missiles with 1500kg payloads could hit their targets.
Iran notified America of when it was launching 72 hours before it did, and that is was only targeting military targets, thus limiting the potential target space that needed to be defended.
Iran spent 1/2000th of what America and Israel spent. There is no way to view that as a success for Israel, or a failure for Iran.
There is now a new calculus in the middle east where Israel will now face consequences when they attack other nations.

Good news for them, I guess… If history is our guide, they can have as much as they want.
This is more related to defense but here goes.

They are scared.
5 militaries.
Israel, Jordan, US, UK, France
The US doesn’t want to pay for a war right now. I drive around freedom potholes and see freedom homeless everywhere because of the last wars.
Thinking the US doesn’t want to pay for a war is the most idiotic thing I’ve ever read in my life.
I didn’t say they don’t want to go to war, I said pay for one.
