14 Jun: Isreal Attack on Iran

Why the attack happened?


By BBC:


"...Why he (Netanyahu) decided to go ahead with the attack right now - one that he has for so long advocated - could be for the reasons he has given.


In a statement released not long after the operation began, he said that it was a matter of Israel's survival.


But Netanyahu has been making the argument for many years that Israel faces existential threat if Iran gets a nuclear bomb. To underline the renewed urgency, a senior Israeli military official has said that there was information that Iran had enough material to make 15 nuclear bombs within days."
