Does the US really want to play this game? 90% of Israel's water comes from desalination plants, and now we've given Iran the justification to strike back in a similar manner.

Did you misread the title? Or the article?

The article stated that this could set a precedent for Iran to strike Israel's desalination plants, and it is real relied on desalination for up to 70% of its water

You provided zero context for that quote in the first statement and it looked like you simple were commenting on the title, which of course refers to the current real scenario in which the US and Israel did another war crime.
