Did Israel 'intentionally' cause an attack on itself? Does Netanyahu have this plan of revenge?

Israel is now in active mode after Iran's attacks, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and IDF have warned Iran that it will have to pay the price for this attack. IDF spokesperson has said that the Israeli army is ready to respond to Iran whenever and wherever the Israeli government says.

At the same time, former Israeli Prime Minister and radical leader Naftali Bennett has posted on X that Israel has the biggest opportunity in 50 years to change the face of the Middle East. He has written that Israel should now attack Iran's nuclear facility. Bennett's statement further strengthens the claim that Israel is deliberately escalating the conflict in the Middle East to trap Iran.

Israel has now its greatest opportunity in 50 years, to change the face of the Middle East.

The leadership of Iran, which used to be good at chess, made a terrible mistake this evening.

We must act *now* to destroy Iran’s nuclear program, its central energy facilities, and to…

Did Naftali reveal Netanyahu's plan?

Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has said about Iran's attack that Israel has the biggest opportunity in 50 years to change the map of the Middle East. He said that the Iranian leadership, which till now seemed to be an expert in this game of chess, has made a big mistake.

He further wrote that we must now destroy Iran's nuclear program and central energy facility, so that this 'terrorist regime' can be weakened. The head of the octopus of terror (Iran) is killing our people through its tentacles like Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthis while Ayatollah is sitting in a safe haven in Tehran.

Naftali wrote that Israel should not let this opportunity slip away, adding that Iran's proxies have just been wounded and Iran has been exposed.

Iran's nuclear program on Israel's target?

America and Israel consider Iran's nuclear program a big threat. Recently, America claimed that Iran is close to making nuclear weapons and it can soon declare itself a nuclear power. If Iran succeeds in making nuclear weapons, then it will not be possible for all its opponents including America and Israel to directly attack Iran.

Israel has been trying for a long time to stop Iran from making nuclear weapons. Israel's intelligence agency Mossad has also targeted scientists involved in Iran's nuclear program. If Iran's nuclear program succeeds, the ongoing conflict in the Middle East can become more fierce. Iran can cause great harm to Israel to establish its supremacy in the region. Therefore, Israel is trying to stop Iran from becoming a nuclear power at all costs.

Did Israel carry out the attack 'intentionally'?

Israel has been fighting a war against Hamas in Gaza for almost a year, before the death of Hamas chief Ismail Haniyya on 31 July, it was believed that the Gaza ceasefire deal would be finalized soon. It was hoped that the war in Gaza would now stop, but Haniyya's murder put the deal on hold.

When the talks resumed a few days later, Israel got stuck over control of Netzarim in Gaza and the Philadelphia Corridor on the Egyptian border. Allegations began to be made that Netanyahu does not want to do a deal and wants to prolong this conflict. But what will Israel gain by prolonging the conflict?

In fact, Iran is believed to have a hand in setting up all the Shia rebel groups around Israel, including Hamas and Hezbollah. Israel has dealt a severe blow to Hamas and Hezbollah in the past as well, but they keep rising again and again. Israel considers these groups to be Iran's proxy and knows very well that if things go too far, Iran will definitely jump into the war to save Hamas and Hezbollah, meaning Israel will have a great opportunity to attack Iran.

Does Netanyahu want to change the map of the Middle East?

That is why the attack on Tuesday night is being considered a sign of Iran falling into Israel's trap. A few days ago, Muin Rabbani, non-resident fellow of the Center for Conflict and Humanitarian Studies, had expressed this apprehension. He had claimed that it is Israel's strategic decision to further escalate the conflict in the Middle East.

Rabbani believes that by doing this, Israel wants to change the fundamental map of the Middle East. He said that Israel's main target is Iran and Netanyahu wants to involve America in this war during the remaining tenure of the Biden administration. Iran has probably given Israel the opportunity it was looking for through its 'Operation True Promise 2'.
