So far no indication of any US involvement. Speedy Gonzales even went out of his way to extricate himself from this shitshow.

Iranian state media reports 60 killed in strike
BBCIranian state media has reported that 60 people, including 20 children, have been killed in an Israeli strike on Friday on a residential building in Tehran.
Israel has said it is targeting Iranian military sites, including nuclear facilities.
The latest official death toll we received from Iran was on Friday - when the country's representative to the UN Security Council said 78 had been killed during Israeli strikes.
It's not clear if the 60 people reported today are included in the previous number, and the BBC has not independently verified the figures.

Iran massed more fires during TP1/TP2 than the past 36 or so hours. My point confirmed, so who really is the rube here? Exactly

UK hasn't yet contributed to efforts to defend Israel from Iranian strikes
Jack FenwickBBC Political correspondent
In the last hour or so, Iranian state media has reported that Iran has warned the UK not to help Israel stop its strikes on the country.
They say that Iran will target ships and bases belonging to the UK, US and France, if they defend Israel against Iranian drones or missiles.
Downing Street aren’t responding to those comments, but as of this morning it’s understood the UK has not taken part in any military action, including efforts to defend Israel against those strikes.
I was told yesterday that there’d been no request from Israel to the UK for that type of assistance.
Government sources haven’t been confirming this morning whether that’s still the case.
When Iran has targeted Israel with drones in the past, the UK has sent RAF Typhoon jets from Cyprus to shoot them down.

Yes, but they become too expensive and unnecessary... entire region around entity is now so pro-american that put story about 'only friend in the regia' into oblivion... and Americans, youngsters especially, are growing up with anger at all of the zillions wasted for the entity, while they lack medical insurance....

Iran will see this as a battle for survival
Lyse Doucet
BBC Chief international correspondent
Prime Minister Netanyahu has opened another open-front war.
He says it will take “as many days as it will take” and he’s been clear that his ambition is not just to destroy Iran's ability to make a nuclear weapon; he also wants to bring down the regime.
The Iranian regime is going to see this as a battle for survival - this is something they have also been preparing for.
They will throw everything they have at this war.
Their attacks so far have been limited. The Israeli intelligence assessment seems to be that despite the damage to Iran's arsenal after the last 20 months of war in the region, Iran still has about 2,000 ballistic missiles and a capacity to produce more.
They’re now using them to hit strategic targets which are in or near populated centres.
In Tel Aviv, for example, they seem to be aiming at the defence ministry and other military sites but they are landing short and hitting residential areas. Either deliberately or accidentally there is a risk of mass casualties - in both Israel and Iran.
But Iran does not want to draw in America directly - Iran's Supreme Leader knows that militarily and politically Iran cannot win. But as this war escalates, Iranian military officials are now warning of attacks against U.S. bases in the region.
They had always believed their bulwark against the kind of war has been one American president after another saying to Netanyahu: "No, you cannot attack Iran's nuclear facilities, we will try to find a diplomatic way out of it - that is simply too dangerous an option".
President Trump says he did not give a green light - but even if it was just amber, this war has been unleashed, with no clear sign as to how and when it will end.
