Today's Poll Question: Who Forced the Strike on Iran - Israel or The U.S.?

Today's Poll Question: Who Forced the Strike on Iran - Israel or The U.S.?

Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: "Which statement do you agree with most? A) Israel compelled the US to act against Iran. B) The US compelled Israel to act against Iran. C) Iran's actions triggered US and Israeli responses." After nearly 40,000 votes yesterday on whether force against Iran should end, a new question emerges: who actually drove the decision to strike? Secretary Rubio suggested Israel was poised to act. Speaker Johnson echoed that framing. Prime Minister Netanyahu cited an urgent, existential threat. Then President Trump said he may have forced Israel’s hand. With fresh Axios reporting adding new timeline details, Michael walks through the conflicting narratives and asks the key question—who compelled whom, and why now? Listen here, then vote!
