A rare bipartisan House vote rebuked the Iran war, but it changes little because the White House can ignore it — bad news for anyone hoping the conflict ends soon.

• The House passed a resolution to end the war in Iran, with four Republicans crossing party lines to back it.
• The vote is not binding, so the administration can ignore it, and almost certainly will.
• The blockade and embargo on Iran are still in place, so the war is effectively still going on.
• High gas and diesel prices are tied to the conflict, and would drop fast if the U.S. paused weapons shipments to Israel.
• A defense bill provision (Section 224) would tie the U.S. and Israeli militaries closer together, deepening America's commitment to Israel's wars.

Outlook: The war looks set to drag on like Afghanistan, with the upcoming defense bill the next flashpoint over U.S.-Israel military ties.
