Israel’s Deadline for Strike Against Iran’s Nuclear Program is Shrinking, Warns General

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW!

• Retired Brigadier General Amir Avivi, Chairman of the Israel Defense and Security Forum think tank, has predicted that Israel may launch a strike against Iran’s nuclear program in as little as three months if the Biden administration does not unite its Middle Eastern allies around a plan to combat Iran’s nuclear weapons program.
• Israel’s deadline for a strike is shrinking due to Iran’s relationship with Russia and support for its war in Ukraine, which could provide Iran with advanced air defense systems that would make it harder for Israel to attack its nuclear sites.
• Israel and its Arab neighbors need the West to wake up and react to this development. The United States appears hesitant to assume this role, and it has kept the door open to diplomacy with Iran surrounding the 2015 nuclear accord.

Israel’s deadline for a strike against Iran’s nuclear program is shrinking due to Iran’s relationship with Russia and support for its war in Ukraine, according to Brigadier General Amir Avivi. He warns that Israel could launch a strike in as little as three months if the Biden administration does not unite its Middle Eastern allies around a plan to combat Iran’s nuclear weapons program.

The retired general, who spent 30 years in the Israel Defense Forces and now serves as Chairman of the Israel Defense and Security Forum think tank, said in a wide-ranging interview that “an Israeli military strike is bad for everybody, but this is at the moment what’s going to happen, and maybe happen in three months, in six months, maybe a year.”

Avivi notes that Moscow could provide Iran with advanced air defense systems that would make it harder for Israel to attack its nuclear sites. Without an anti-Iran coalition in the Middle East, Israel’s options are limited. He calls on the West to wake up and react to this development. Israel and its Arab neighbors that fear a nuclear Iran “need the West to wake up and react to this development,” Avivi said.

“At the moment, the U.S. is sitting on the fence, not deciding to lead and build a coalition that will stabilize [the region] and challenge”. the Iran-Russia alliance.

The Biden administration’s failure to address these fears pushed Saudi Arabia—a nation that was warming up to Israel during the Trump administration—to ink a peace agreement with Iran that was brokered by China.

The Saudi-Iran relationship has long been on the rocks due to Tehran’s regional terrorism operations, but China stepped in this month to broker a deal that restores diplomatic ties between the countries.

China’s leading role in the agreement signals the Communist regime is replacing the United States as the region’s power broker and could spell trouble for Israel as it tries to unite its Arab neighbors in opposition to Tehran.
