➡️Israel and the United States jointly planned a large-scale attack on Iranian nuclear sites—including a commando operation and a prolonged airstrike option—as early as May of this year.

➡️Trump shelved the plan, fearing a regional war, preferring to try a diplomatic move against Tehran.

➡️There was disagreement within the US administration—CENTCOM commander Kurilla supported the attack, while other senior officials, including Trump's deputy, opposed it.

➡️Netanyahu traveled to Washington to try to convince Trump—but failed.

➡️US forces were deployed to the region (aircraft carriers, bombers, Patriot batteries, and the THAAD system) as part of preparations for an attack scenario.

➡️Trump began talks with Iran, but emphasized that if it failed, he might support an attack.

➡️Israel considered switching from a commando attack to an airstrike only, but it needs US support to succeed and deal with the Iranian response.
