"The joint US-Israeli strikes on Iran reflect a bankruptcy of decades-long approaches that depend on pressure and destabilization without addressing the underlying issues."
"This latest gambit appears less a strategic gamechanger than a desperate bid to regime-change Iran and prop up a rickety regional status quo."
"The result looks like a trap: Trump, once again, manoeuvred into a destabilising Middle East conflict that serves Netanyahu's agenda far more than the US's."
"Even senior US officials now concede that Fordow was not destroyed, signalling a return to negotiations as the only viable path for addressing Iran's nuclear ambitions."
The recent joint US-Israeli strikes on Iran highlight the flaws of a long-standing approach dominated by pressure and destabilization. Rather than achieving a strategic shift, the attacks seem to be an attempt at regime change that align more closely with Israeli interests. The strikes did provoke a response from Iran, which was able to mitigate damage at its Fordow enrichment facility ahead of time. With military solutions proving ineffective, US officials are now advocating for a new round of negotiations concerning Iran's nuclear capabilities.
