And the US sends Gen. Erik Kurilla, commander of the U.S. Central Command, "...to meet Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and senior Israel Defense Forces officials, to aide the Israelis in their preparation for a possible Iranian response. "

When it comes to Biden and Kirby and Blinken, deception would be unwarranted hyperbole.

Insulting obfuscation, and fawning servility, might be closer to the truth.
