Israeli PM Netanyahu’s war strategy in Gaza has come under question after speculation that he used Iran’s attacks as leverage in the conflict. A report by The New Arab claims Netanyahu likely used Iran’s attack on Israel to change the opinion of the US and its allies in the Middle East. Analysts say “the welfare of the people of Gaza has never been a concern of the US” and Iran was just a “red herring” to distract it. Iran’s attack was likely a “lifeline” for Netanyahu, who has been accused of continuing the war in Gaza to delay elections that could oust him from power.
