                              Gaza Forgotten as Netanyahu Provokes a Wider War

Israel’s massive, unprovoked military assault on Iran—killing top Iranian commanders, nuclear scientists, and civilians—may mark the most dangerous escalation in the region in decades. Carried out just days before scheduled U.S.-Iran nuclear talks, the strikes suggest a clear intent to derail diplomacy and provoke a wider war. According to analyst Trita Parsi, Israel may be gambling that Iran retaliates, drawing the U.S. deeper into a regional conflict.
President Trump appears complicit. While expressing frustration with Netanyahu’s brutal war on Gaza, he reportedly coordinated with Israel to gain “leverage” in nuclear negotiations. Instead of diplomacy, this reckless strategy risks U.S. lives, tanks the economy, and legitimizes mass killing.
Meanwhile, Gaza bleeds. As Israeli bombs fall on Iran, over 100 Gazans were killed in just 24 hours. Israeli journalist Gideon Levy warns that Netanyahu’s Iran strikes will bolster his domestic popularity—while shifting world attention away from the starvation and death in Gaza.
This is Netanyahu’s war of choice. His goal: destroy diplomacy, weaken Iran, and deflect criticism of his catastrophic Gaza campaign. The U.S. must not be dragged into this. Instead of celebrating military “successes,” global leaders must demand an end to the slaughter in both Gaza and Iran—before more innocent lives are lost.
