Israel ready to attack Iran even without US help
Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz told Fox News in an interview published Friday that the Israeli military is updating its plans to target Iran's nuclear program and is ready to act independently.
Gantz called Tehran's claims that its null program is civil as false and said he was ready to intervene: “If the world stops them sooner, that's very good. But otherwise we will have to stand up independently and have to defend ourselves ”.
The Israeli minister also recalled that a large part of the Israeli domination is opposed to the peace agreement between Irn and Western countries that Or Biden is trying to put into effect again.
Israeli officials had covertly threatened to attack Iran if President Biden reactivated the JPCOA deal without adequate guarantees. Hundreds of pro-US militias in the Middle East make this prospect far more likely. For example, Israel blamed Iran for an explosion last week on a cargo ship flying its flag in the Gulf of Oman. No crew members were injured and the ship returned to sea a few days after the accident. Asked about possible retaliation, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel is already taking action against Iran across the region.
Ganz went so far as to present a map with possible targets to Fox News, showing how the missile ramps of the pro-Iranian Hezbollah militia in Lebanon are hidden among civilian buildings.

On Wednesday, Israel blamed Iran for another incident in the region. Israeli Environment Protection Minister Gila Gamliel said Iran is responsible for a large oil spill that hit Israel last month. Sources told Business Insider that the Biden administration and its European allies fear Israel is planning a major attack on Iran.
