Israel Attacks Iran – Consequences? The Turning of the Tables. By Peter Koenig

Teaming up with Israel against Iraq is probably the single stupidest war in which Trump could get the U.S. involved. From Peter Koenig at lewrockwell. com:

It all started in the early morning hours of 13 June 2025, with what Israel calls “Operation Rising Lion”. Israel’s Air Force launched dozens of air strikes against Iran, targeting its nuclear [energy] program. According to BBC, in Iran’s own words, this is the biggest assault on Iran’s territory since the Iran-Iraq War of 1980-1988.

Iran has no nuclear weapons program, as confirmed multiple times by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), belonging to the UN system. However, after a 2024 inspection, the IAEA apparently reported enrichment to about 60%. This is not enough to make an atomic bomb, requiring at least 90%.

But for Israel which has a nuclear warheads arsenal of several hundred, this justified an unprecedented attack on Iran – a clear declaration of war. Israel’s nuclear bomb stockpile is outside of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Agreement, all quietly tolerated by the west led by the United States.  

Only with the explicit backing of the White House, Israel would dare such an assault on a country with a military power that could by far exceed that of Israel.

As these lines are written, the situation on the Israel-Iran war is constantly changing.

The latest state of affairs is that within the last 48 hours the tables have turned by 180 degrees.  

According to the Wall Street Journal (WSJ – 13 June 2025), on Monday, 9 June 2025, Prime Minister Netanyahu raised the possibility of strikes against Iran in a phone conversation with President Trump, confirmed by two U.S. officials. Trump responded that he would like to see diplomacy run its course before turning to military options. In an alert to the world, and short-circuiting diplomacy, on Wednesday 11 June, the U.S. pulled some non-essential personnel out of the region in case of an attack.

    They fear nukes but attacked first?

    India and Pakistan don’t have any problems and both are an ally of the Zionist supremacists.

    Countries know nukes prevent regime change and they know about color revolutions.

    Don’t start none and there won’t be none as they say on the streets.

    The faculty lounge managerials never move on from stale obsolete tactics.

    Remember Obama (THE ONE!) and his 1985 called and wants its foreign policy back regarding Russia?

    That didn’t stop cookies and sandwiches Nuland did it.
