According to a report by Axios, the United States recently cautioned Iran against launching additional attacks on Israel, emphasizing that Washington may not be able to prevent an Israeli response if aggression continues. A US official reportedly conveyed, *“We told the Iranians: We won’t be able to hold Israel back, and we won’t be able to make sure that the next attack will be calibrated and targeted as the previous one.”*
The warning was allegedly delivered directly to Iranian officials, though one Israeli source claims it was communicated through Swiss intermediaries. The report comes amid escalating tensions, following threats from Iran’s supreme leader of a “crushing response” toward Israel and the US after recent attacks.
Iran has indicated a readiness to retaliate, citing the October 26 Israeli strike on Iranian military bases that Tehran says resulted in five casualties. Neither Washington nor Tehran has publicly commented on the Axios report.

The reality is that the ayatollah correctly believes that the US warning “we won’t be able to hold Israel back is a bluff. He understands that the US warned Israel that it will suffer serious consequences if it does anything in Iran without 1st clearing it with the US. And the fact is the US has every right to tell Israel how far it can go with Iran because it will be the US that will suffer and have to deal with Iran if it decides Israel crossed a red line because they said they will shut down the Strait of Hormuz in response. This will result in skyrocketing oil prices and a massive headache for the US, if not a war with Iran.
heck with US…..not one good word or prayer will be hosted other than to those who keep Shabbos pray to G-d and hold Hashem dear to their hearts
Sara Rifka:
Even the founder of Modern Orthodoxy, Rabbi Dr. Soloveitchik himself, noted that the Zionist idol “State” would be toast if not for American support.
So, you won’t be makir tov towards the country that has kept alive your little pseudo-state. That’s sad. But you then write “not one good word or prayer will be hosted other than to those who keep Shabbos pray to G-d and hold Hashem dear to their hearts” Does that mean that you don’t say the Zionist heretical prayers for the Zionist army and “State”?
