According Jpost, Israeli security officials, along with Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu, have met in his office to discuss the ongoing conflict with Iran and
Israel's concerns over Iran's nuclear talks, which Joe Biden he will revive.
Officials including Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Aviv Kochavi, the Finance and
Defense ministers and financial and military ministers met with Netanyahu to
discuss how to prepare a budget for possible attack on Iran if deemed
necessary.
The meeting comes less than a week
after Kochavi said they were ready for an operational plan to strike a nuclear
program if needed. "Going back to the 2015 nuclear deal, or even similar
to several development agreements, is a bad thing in terms of operation and
strategy," Kochavi said.
This time Israel seems to be taking
military action, given Israel's recent activities. At the end of the last year,
Israel sent a submarine into the Persian Gulf, and also carried out attacks on
bases of pro-Iranian groups fighting in Syria and Iraq. Meanwhile, a
pro-Iranian group claimed responsibility for this week's bombing near the
Israeli embassy in New Delhi, which appears to have escalated tensions between
the two.
Since Washington pulled out of the
Iran nuclear deal, Iran has gradually broken its treaty boundaries and begun
building its uranium reserves, enriching uranium at high levels of cleanliness,
and installing it at testing facilities. Kohavi said Iran's actions were a
threat to regional security. Iran, for its part, has denied seeking nuclear
weapons, signaling that it could eventually decide to move quickly toward
developing nuclear weapons. That is a threat to Israel and its US allies.
Both Israel and Iran want Biden to
focus on Iran's nuclear issue. Iran welcomes Biden's call for a resumption of
Trump's nuclear deal, while Israel is concerned. Because Israel will never
agree to welcome Iran or to resume the Iran nuclear deal. Israel wants to work
with the US to stop Iran's nuclear program. The acquisition of nuclear by Iran means
that its enemy has gained power, and that Israel is reacting to war.
Netanyahu can launch an attack on
Iran before resuming nuclear talks. Iran, meanwhile, has said it will return to
the deal if the United States lifts sanctions. Israel and the United States
have recently launched a joint plan to stop any threat from the Iranian regime,
after threatening to retaliate against those who killed Qasem Sulaimani and
Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, meaning Israel and the United States.
