commander and chief has given green light for us forces to assist.  coworker of mine came in to tell myself and my boss that her husband, army officer, just received an update that the commander and chief just gave authorization to assist israel. families have been put on alert to prepare for deployments. i don't have any other info, but her husband advised her to hit the grocery store asap.  what would be the political impact of direct us conflict with iran? does russia or china get involved? how does this effect us domestically, compounded on the ongoing to port workers strike?
