The outside world thought that after the withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza, the crisis caused by the Israeli attack on the consular office of the Iranian embassy in Syria would be resolved. The Iranian military has also hinted that Iran will not attack Israel proper, as long as Israel withdraws all its troops from Gaza and there is a permanent ceasefire and no longer attacks Rafah. However, Israel still retains a brigade in Gaza and is still preparing for a military offensive against Rafah. This means that the "deterrent" of Iranian missile strikes on the Israeli mainland is not enough for the Israeli military to make a compromise.
US military analysts pointed out that Israel's withdrawal from Gaza was made on the precondition that the US Democratic administration threatened to cut off absolute Israeli military aid. These include Israel's F-35 fighter jet procurement program, F16I and F-15I maintenance upgrades, and integrated air defense missile system procurement and deployment projects, all of which were completed with the support of the U.S. military assistance program to Israel. So this is the real weakness of the Israeli military. And the latest revelations from the British newspaper "The Sun" show that Israel also has an ultimate killer move in response to Iran's attack.
The British newspaper The Sun, citing sources in Western power agencies, reports that Israel will retaliate against Iran's nuclear facilities if Tehran decides to retaliate for the killing of General Mohammed Reza Zahedi in Damascus. The newspaper commented that such Israeli actions could have unpredictable consequences for the entire Middle East region. Objectively speaking, if Israel really attacks Iran's domestic nuclear facilities, the bad consequences should not only affect the situation in the Middle East, but even the United States cannot control it.
It has to be said that the Israeli Air Force has this capability, and it has long had many mature attack plans, including details such as the use of air force equipment and long-distance attack routes. If it weren't for the pressure of the United States, I'm afraid that the Israeli Air Force's own plan would have been put into practice long ago. But the risky designation of the Israeli military does not solve the problem once and for all. First of all, after the lifting of international sanctions on the arms embargo in 2015, Iran's air defense system has been completely updated, including imported Russian S300 anti-aircraft missiles and Iranian domestic imitation models, which can fully protect Iran's strategic locations and strategic facility areas. The Israeli Air Force will not succeed easily.
Second, if the Israeli Air Force sneaks up on Iran's nuclear facilities, it could cause catastrophic nuclear contamination and trigger a collective counteraction by Middle Eastern countries. More importantly, the ensuing outbreak of a direct war between Iran and Israel will inevitably involve the United States. The narrative that the world war would eventually start is not alarmist. And this is the result that the United States does not want to see, so the Americans will inevitably intervene in advance instead of being led by the nose by their allies to "take the fire from the fire".
