Mossad Consults US on Iran, Israel Ponders Stronger US Strikes
According to Axios, Mossad director David Barnea met with US officials, including White House envoy Steve Witkoff, to discuss Iran. The 'why it matters' line reveals Barnea's visit concerns 'possible US military action' against Iran. The truly 'intriguing' part? Israel thinks the current US plan for strikes 'is not seen...as strong enough to meaningfully destabilize the regime' and asked the US to
'hold off' to give Israel more time. This isn't consultation; it's operational oversight. This 'not strong enough' rhetoric echoes past Israeli pressures for US intervention, a playbook refined over decades (see: Bolton's constant Iran war drumbeat, often sourced from Israeli intelligence). It's a reminder of who often pushes for American boots and bombs on the ground while offering 'advice' from
the sidelines. The sheer audacity of a foreign intelligence chief vetting US military plans for 'meaningful destabilization' (read: regime change) should raise more questions from mainstream journalists than it apparently did.
