Why is Isreal attacking Iran... and does it benefit Benjamin Netanyahu? We unpack Israel’s recent strike on Iran through a dual-lens of security doctrine and political survival. The hard facts of Iran’s nuclear program suggests why many experts believe it poses only a medium-term deterrent risk. But Benjamin Netanyahu’s precarious standing: three indictments, a fractious Knesset coalition, and looming threats of early elections... changes the game. By tracing how “rally ’round the flag” dynamics have shaped Israeli decision-making historically, we reveal why this strike can’t be read purely as a defensive necessity.
