Jesus Christ the opening to that video had me guessing for a moment until I calmed down and realized it's obviously a hypothetical. Given that it's reported that Iranian officials consider their attack "concluded", it would be great if all the players stepped away from escalation into open war. The video I linked talks about the pressure on both Iran and Israel to back down, and here's hoping they do. The world really really doesn't need yet another open war in the Middle East, USA-involved or otherwise.
Yeah I also thought for a second I had somehow missed a fucking nuclear bombing
