Recently, Israel made a big move, directly attacking the Iranian Embassy in Syria, and destroying the entire building with six missiles! At this moment, relations between Iran and Israel were instantly tense, like a powder keg, which could explode at any time. Iran, for its part, must be furious, accusing Israel of violating international rules and demanding that the United Nations and the international community condemn this "aggressor".
Having said that, why did Netanyahu, an old fox, suddenly make such a comeback? Is it not ready to entangle with Hamas, and is directly about to fight a decisive battle with Iran?
At present, Israel is planning to attack Rafah, and even if Netanyahu is hospitalized for surgery, he does not forget to emphasize the preparations for attacking Rafah. But at this moment, the dissatisfaction with Netanyahu in Israel, after a six-month backlog, broke out again, and four consecutive days of large-scale protests demanded his resignation. At this juncture, Israel's sudden air raid on the Iranian embassy is really just a vent of its dissatisfaction with Iran's support for Hamas?
I don't think it's that simple. Netanyahu's decision was definitely not impulsive. Since last year's Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Israeli attacks on Syria have become increasingly frequent, and they are clearly directed at Iran. Now that the Iranian embassy has been bombed, Netanyahu's motives are very clear!
Netanyahu wants to deflect domestic contradictions and consolidate his position in power. Now there is a lot of discontent in Israel, frustration and resentment with the prolongation of the war and the failure to rescue the hostages, all pointing to Netanyahu. The Israelis now have no regard for unity and only want to vent their frustration with Netanyahu through mass demonstrations.
Moreover, the relationship between the United States and Israel has also been slightly tense recently. Although the United States supports Israel on the surface, it still wants them to reduce the intensity of their fighting and even cease fire. But Netanyahu, he's not so obedient. He insisted on advancing military operations, even in the Gaza Strip. Now the United States can not sit still, and the president of the Senate has openly called for the replacement of the Israeli leadership.
Netanyahu can now be said to be in a dilemma both internally and externally. So, he had to find a way to divert everyone's attention in order to continue his political game. And what could be more effective than to create an even bigger crisis if he wants to save himself, to reunite the Israelis?
Iran has always been Israel's sworn enemy, and many of Israel's military moves have been directed against Iran. Now Netanyahu has just had surgery and has airstriked the Iranian embassy, which is similar to last year. Last year, because of the judicial reform, there were also complaints in Israel, which also caused dissatisfaction in the United States, and directly threatened Netanyahu's position. When Hamas attacked Israel, Netanyahu took advantage of the Israelis' desire to retaliate against Hamas and successfully maintained his rule.
Now that Israel's military operation in Gaza has neither eliminated Hamas nor freed the hostages, the already exhausted Israelis have completely erupted. So Netanyahu suddenly made a big deal and blew up the Iranian embassy in order to make a big deal out of it! At that time, he can use the war crisis with Iran to divert domestic discontent, and at the same time suppress the dissatisfaction of the United States with himself and continue to get the support of the United States.
