Washington urged Israel to act alone on Iran
The Israeli newspaper "Maariv" reported that the United States presented an idea during previous consultations over the past two weeks to carry out a unilateral Israeli attack on Iran. However, this plan was later withdrawn due to Israeli warnings about its political and internal repercussions. Israel's Chief of Staff, Eyal Zamir, warned the American side that launching an attack on Iran could delay the upcoming Israeli elections scheduled for late October, which has currently halted the process. The newspaper linked the American proposal to concerns over Iran's ability to reproduce missile and drone capabilities. It also suggested that electoral considerations played a role in choosing the responsible party, emphasizing that the US administration aims to avoid damaging the Republican Party's prospects in the upcoming Congressional elections. Additionally, a pre-election Israeli attack could have political consequences within Israel itself. Western reports, on the other hand, indicated that Iran still retains the ability to manufacture missiles and drones despite recent strikes. However, the White House confirmed that US operations have contributed to destroying parts of Iran's military capabilities. No official confirmation has been issued regarding the American proposal, but the report reflects the overlapping military and electoral considerations in Washington and Jerusalem concerning a potential escalation against Iran.
