US EditionAttacking Iran, Israel Brazenly Defies 'Man of Peace' Trump
- Earlier this week, Israel’s head of government, Benjamin Netanyahu, initiated a preemptive military operation aimed at disrupting Iran’s nuclear facilities within Iranian territory.
- The attack followed deadlocked and faltering diplomatic talks between the US, Iran, and European allies aimed at restraining Iran's nuclear ambitions.
- The Israeli operation deployed numerous aircraft to strike Iran’s nuclear and military facilities, reportedly targeting high-ranking Iranian figures, with the attacks anticipated to persist in the coming days.
- Trump warned the attack could cause “massive conflict,” urged restraint, but later praised Israel’s strikes as “excellent” and affirmed US military support, amid critics labeling the action as sabotage of peace efforts.
- The offensive heightens escalation risks in West Asia, leaves Iran closer to nuclear capability, and pressures Trump to decide on deeper US involvement amid a split political base.
