The US has long-standing, documented plans to provoke a war with Iran via its “Israeli” proxies designed to deflect the consequences away from Washington and toward “Israel”.
The US also seeks an opportunity to wade into a conflict after it begins, but appear committed to peace beforehand, and only reluctantly enter into an “unprovoked” war - just as the US has done with Ukraine vis-a-vis Russia.
Entirely understandable, because an invasion of their country would almost certainly result in the deaths of millions of their citizens. It’s easy to pound the table for a stronger response when it’s not your head on the chopping block.
