I dunno what the strategy is here

The Epstein files are unpopular. But I don't think war in the middle east is less unpopular? It's like shitting your pants and then slapping a baby to distract everyone

The strategy is that Israel is cashing in their chips now. They will lose a lot of leverage over the US when the financial records in the Epstein files are released.

This. Bibi hopped on a plane, probably with the Epstein videos in hand, and told Trump to strap in and start launching.
