US Official Confirms Joint US-Israel Military Operation Against Iran
Tehran. An American official told Al Jazeera that the ongoing attack on Iran is a joint military operation between the United States and Israel. Several rounds of talks had been held recently to avert the conflict, the latest of which concluded just two days ago.
Within the last 12 hours, the Foreign Minister of Oman, who has been playing the main facilitator role in indirect talks between the US and Iran, met with US Vice President JD Vance in Washington to make a final attempt to stop the confrontation. However, it has now been formally confirmed that this confrontation has begun from the Israeli front.
According to Israeli security sources, Israel and the US concluded in the last 24 hours that there was no possibility of further talks. Currently, Israeli airspace is completely closed, and the military has declared a state of emergency, urging citizens to remain near safe shelters.
'Israel's Strike to Derail US-Iran Talks'
According to Mehran Kamrava, a professor at Georgetown University and an expert on Iranian affairs, Israel had already made its intention clear to sabotage the talks between the US and Iran. Speaking to Al Jazeera, he said, 'It appears that, similar to last June, Israel orchestrated this attack this time to derail the diplomatic dialogue between these two countries.'
According to Kamrava, US President Donald Trump is trapped in a cycle of pressure he created himself. 'Due to the massive military mobilization and the continuous green light given to Israel over the past year and a half, Trump has reached a point where he could not refuse Israel. In a way, the Israelis have forced Trump into this war,' he explained.
