A knowledgeable American official revealed today (Thursday) to the Emirati media that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is behind the idea of a broad military strike on Iran. The source claimed that Netanyahu proposed the idea to President Trump, with the main goal of fundamentally changing the structure of the Iranian regime. In contrast, the US administration seeks to push Iran to accept an agreement on the security of the Strait of Hormuz and the nuclear program, while avoiding escalation into an open conflict that could affect energy markets and regional stability. The article also cites a report in the New York Times about preparations for a short, intensive 72-hour military operation, including strikes on nuclear facilities, missile and drone stockpiles, and energy infrastructure, with increased operational coordination between the IDF and the US military.
