Shachar: It should be a charad to scare Iran

We have seen a rain of such dramatic news lately, mainly in US media. The impression is that the United States and Israel are on the verge of smoking together on this issue. But are this news genuine or are they part of a common action where the United States and Israel jointly practice nerve war against Iran?

The other day, Trump stated that at all costs he wants to avoid war on negotiations with Iran about its nuclear program. But, he admitted, if peaceful methods do not bear fruit, then « awful things » can happen. Trump, in one breath, wants peace and threatens with war.

So far, tactics have been effective. Iran has accepted what it has even refused to even discuss: enrichment of uranium up to 3.67 percent and unlimited access for the UN Atomic Energy Agency to all facilities. In addition, Iran has agreed to leave its reserves of highly enriched uranium.

Netanyahu appeals to Trump not to settle for it. He wants the United States to demand that Iran abstain from its centrifuges, where the level of the fissile uranium isotope U-235 is worked up. And he hardly hides that he hopes Trump will give up his negotiations with Iran.

Netanyahu has for many years been coin of the Iranian danger in its domestic politics. In 2015, when a right -wing party threatened to leave his coalition, he persuaded it to remain, because an action against Iran was imminent. In April this year, he dismissed a similar government crisis, as the Orthodox parties were informed of a probable action against Iran.

Iran’s Russian air defense was completely or partially destroyed during two Israeli attacks last year. Iran appeals to Russia to repair the systems, but so far in vain. An Israeli attack is far less risky today than before. But it would immediately trigger an Iranian missile attack against Israel, of unknown extent. Israel’s military experts believe that an attack on Iran must be coordinated with the United States and partly to damage Iran’s nuclear facilities so severely that the regime backs and makes concessions to Trump, partly to push down Iran’s ballistic missiles before they break down.

Netanyahu, which is already making its calculations for next year’s elections, is keen to sign with a large and shiny feat that overshadows the memory of the military failure in October 2023 and of Israel’s increasing isolation today. Netanyahus opponents in Israel therefore keep their thumbs up for Trump and Iran to agree on a peaceful way.
