That said, the US government is not interested in seeing this conflict between Israel and Iran escalate.
It's supposed to be a policy of controlled chaos in the middle east, and an actual direct war between Israel and Iran probably isn't what they had in mind. I don't really know where the US wants to go from here, but I doubt direct military intervention from the US could last too long before they get a black eye.
Can't believe Iran is denying their right to return.
