Israel can more than handle this on their own without us having to step in. The only reason why we should if this escalates with Israel's neighbors or Iran. I really hope the latter doesn't happen because that would be hugely disastrous.
It's still unclear what happens here between Us/Israel and Iran. Iran is not Syria or Iraq, you can't topple or destabilize them like some of the hawks would want. I'm afraid they are pushing towards some confrontation though.
The US has already sent more military supplies and a carrier strike group, every other western nation has essentially given Israel a blank check to "defend themselves"
This is putting the choice to go to war in the hands of Iran IMO, if they attack Israel after Israel massacres Gaza the US will be immediately involved. Even if only Hezbollah gets involved (which looks likely) the west will have to supply Israel with munitions and equipment which means another Ukraine to support.
Just seems inevitable to me given Israels response so far and what they have stated their plan is.
