Recently, the conflict between the United States and Iran has resurfaced. Israel, which participated in the counter-Iran operations at the end of February this year, has instead continued to stay out of the matter.
According to CNN, Israeli Finance Minister Mosertich said at a meeting on the 21st that 'at present, Israel has no intention of joining this operation.'
He believes that the limited confrontation between Iran and the United States is in Israel’s interest, as it increases pressure on the Iranian regime. “The best way to bring down this regime is by economically crushing it,” Smoltich refers to Iran’s soaring inflation rate.
Therefore, the current situation is favorable to us, and we have no intention of proactively getting involved. Smottery said.
According to CNN, citing three Israeli sources, Israel did not participate directly in this round of fighting, and the US has not yet asked Israel to join in the battle. One of the sources said, “If U.S President Trump decides to expand the scale of the strikes and ask Israel to participate, ‘we will be prepared.’”
A source said that despite being in a state of high alert, Israel is satisfied with the current situation: while the United States and Iran continue to attack each other and there is no nuclear agreement in sight, Israel can stay as an observer. Meanwhile, Iran will continue to face economic pressure.
