Max Boot: Israel Should Take the Win Without Having a Need to Lash Out at Iran
‘That could easily draw the entire region into a wider war’
EXCERPT:
BOOT: "Well, it's hard to know, John, because certainly any Israeli airstrike on Iran, Iranian territory, would not be a limited one. That would be something that would be likely to provoke further Iranian retaliation and escalation. But there are certainly other things that Israel can do, including cyber attacks, including attacks on Iranian targets in Lebanon or Syria, or even Iraq, so it‘s really hard to know. But I would hope that the Israelis would do just what Alex was talking about and take the win without having a need to lash out at Iran, because that could easily draw the entire region into a wider war, and that could draw the U.S. into a lighter war, which is the last thing that the Biden Administration wants."
