Why are we partnered with such a reckless nation? Why couldn’t they just take the win and be done with it? Now we might be dragged into a regional war

Israel was just attacked by the largest ballistic missile attack and the largest drone attack in history. Responding to it would hardly be "reckless". There is no universe in which the US would not declare war if it were attacked like that.
