Israel's Iran Attack Was Motivated by Waning Support for Genocide, Analysts Say
Briefly

Israel has escalated its military campaign against Iran by bombing the headquarters of its national television network and assassinating a prominent military leader. Prime Minister Netanyahu has suggested targeting Iran's supreme leader, prompting a strong response from Iran with missile strikes on Israeli territories. The U.S. has shown minimal intervention, with President Trump's controversial evacuation call for Tehran. This conflict raises concerns that it may push Iran towards militarizing its nuclear program. Analysts note that Netanyahu's actions may be a strategy to divert attention from Israel’s rising domestic criticisms regarding Gaza.
"How can a city, a metropolis of 10 million people, suddenly evacuate? And to where?" says Iranian American journalist Negar Mortazavi, emphasizing the impracticality of President Trump's evacuation call.
Israeli political analyst Ori Goldberg believes Netanyahu's assaults on Iran are a strategic distraction from growing criticism over actions in Gaza, stating, "Netanyahu felt the global sentiment shifting ... and because of that, he attacked Iran."
