Israel fabricates case of nuclear-weaponized Iran
(MENAFN) Just hours after Israel struck Iran in the early hours of June 13, US President Donald Trump insisted it was “not too late” for Iran to return to negotiations over its nuclear program. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described the attack as a step toward “freedom”—but many view this framing as a dangerous disguise for aggression.
The US and Israel portray their actions as diplomatic, yet the reality is that this is coercion masked by promises of peace. The attack underscores a dramatic shift in international politics, where negotiations are used to legitimize force instead of resolve disputes.
Some say the ultimate aim might be a change of Iran’s government, a submission to a US-Israeli view of the region. Nevertheless, many Iranians are increasingly arguing that developing nuclear capabilities may be the only way to deter future attacks and assert their independence. Iran's growing support for groups like Hezbollah and Hamas is, in this view, a defensive response to aggression.
Some advocates for change seem to ignore a key reality: Iran has a longstanding history of suffering from outside intervention, from the 1953 coup against Prime Minister Mohammed Mosaddegh — orchestrated by the US and UK — to the Iran-Iraq war in the 1980s, when the West supported Saddam Hussein's aggression against Iran. The notion that a new government would be more compliant disregards Iran's deep-rooted resolve to resist domination.
Ultimately, many view Iran's move toward developing a nuclear capability not as aggression, but as a form of survival — a way to safeguard its future in the face of persistent attacks and pressure.
