Israel’s War on Iran: A Subservient Role to the US

Tensions are escalating in Israel as the nation grapples with the consequences of a five-week conflict with Iran. According to Einbar Bezik, a seasoned politician and CEO of the Upper Galilee Development Company, Israel’s military campaign has fallen short of its objectives after 40 days of fighting. “What tangible benefits have we secured?” she questioned. “The war has resulted in a staggering number of casualties on the home front, the loss of lives among soldiers, and the displacement of thousands of residents, all while the war’s key objectives remain unfulfilled. The Iranian nuclear programme continues unabated, the threat of ballistic missiles persists, and the regime remains entrenched, with Hezbollah, the Houthis, and Hamas still posing a threat.”

Ram Ben-Barak, a former chair of the Knesset’s Foreign Affairs and Defence Committee, has characterized the conflict as a “crushing defeat” orchestrated by Netanyahu. “The person driving Israel’s foreign and security policy is effectively Donald Trump, with the US holding sway over decisions in Gaza and Iran,” he stated. “This is the stark reality. Netanyahu has effectively subordinated Israel to the US, and I fear this may be the case in Lebanon as well.” Yossi Shain, a renowned expert in international relations at Tel Aviv University and Georgetown University, concurred with this assessment. “Israel did not dictate the outcome of this war; it was a secondary player,” he observed on Channel 12. “We’ve essentially been riding on the back of a tiger, and it’s clear that our interests are not aligned with those of our host. From a geopolitical standpoint, unfortunately, we haven’t emerged stronger as a result.”
