You claimed specifically that Israel has nuclear weapons pointed at America, but when I asked you about it you only linked me an article that said that they have nuclear weapons. Considering how far away they are, “pointed at America” isn’t really plausible.
In no way am I validating or invalidating his point of “pointed at America” but in general here if anyone launches a nuke at anyone, EVERYONE in the flight path of assumes it’s coming at them. It’s how are extremely shitty, scary system “works”.
Check out the movie “A House of Dynamite”. It’s supposed to be pretty closely based on a What If and how decisions are supposed to be made.
I have no reason to believe that Israel even has the ability to hit a target that is anywhere near the US, so the US cannot be in the flight path of whatever target they hit with missiles. And who would they even want to hit where the US is on a potential flight path? Canada and Mexico?
Either way, if that’s our standard for “Israel bad because nuclear weapons”, every other nuclear power is an asshole to Israel, too, including the US.

Israel is a parasite on America
