Israeli
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has requested President Trump's green light
for strikes on Iranian energy infrastructure that Washington has not yet
authorized, according to broadcaster Kan 11.
This comes
as U.S. and Israeli militaries prepare options for a short campaign targeting
energy sites, nuclear facilities, and missile arsenals after the November 3
elections.
While Trump
shows enthusiasm if diplomacy fails, critics like Senator Chris Murphy call the
plans 'insane,' warning of escalation and economic fallout from potential
Iranian retaliation.
