Yeah totally get that mate, I think it was my coping mechanism kicking in to just try and make sense and understand why America is holding this stance, but think yours and others explanations gives a very good account as to the reasons why.

It's Occam's razor. American politicians are psychopathic arseholes who only care about money and power.

Israel's "limited" ground invasion of Lebanon is underway, and now it's reported that Iran will launch a missile attack on Israel "imminently". So on it goes.

BBC News -
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cg4qx62kkxxtThe US has issued a “shelter in place” notice for US staff and their families at their embassy buildings in Israel.
One other point - the statements coming from White House officials carry a warning that I didn’t pick up quite so explicitly in the run up to Iran’s April strike on Israel.
This time the unnamed officials warn Iran explicitly of “severe consequences” for Iran in the event of a direct military attack on Israel. That’s very ominous.
The US just expects Iran to sit idly by whilst the Israelis blow their country to pieces. Cool, sounds a completely reasonable request.

Israeli military spokesman Daniel Hagari has said that the Israeli Air Force will "strike powerfully in the Middle East" tonight.
The talk now seems to be whether the inevitable Israeli response would be to finally destroy the Iranian nuclear programme.
Taking out any materiel that Iran sends to Russia wouldn't be a bad option either.
