Israeli operation in Iran to take weeks, and it’s moving forward with implicit US approval, sources say​

From CNN’s Kylie Atwood and Alayna Treene
Israel’s operation against Iran is expected to take “weeks, not days” and is moving forward with implicit US approval, according to White House and Israeli officials.

The administration of US President Donald Trump has not critiqued the weeks-long timeframe in private discussions, an Israeli official told CNN. A White House official said the administration was aware and implicitly supportive of Israel’s plans. When asked about how long the conflict could continue, the official said it depended on Iran’s response.

“The Trump administration firmly believes this can be solved by continuing negotiations with the US,” the official said, adding that the US was not going to direct Israel to do anything but defend itself.

That second part never happened unless this was a different strike from a year ago.

Israel struck without warning, Iran was in the middle of talks with the US.

Israel-Iran conflict could spread to Middle Eastern countries hosting foreign military bases​

Reporting from Banff, Canada
Iran has threatened to attack western bases [in the Middle East] if those countries provide further support Israel. If that happens, then western military assets, the US in particular, but also that of the UK, it really could expand what is such a serious situation to other countries.
Just to give you a list of where the UK have forces based: in Iraq and in Syria, where they were fighting ISIL, they still have forces there.
In the Gulf and the UAE and Qatar, in Bahrain and in Oman, and the big UK sovereign base in Cyprus.
So it shows the spread of the UK, a similar spread of the US, and I think that’s the big worry of further escalation. A big worry politically in terms of militarily what could happen, and real concern about what that could mean for the global economy, given this is the centre of oil and gas in the world.

How military escalation with Iran divides Trump’s base​

Reporting from Washington, DC
After taking the oath of office for his second term in January, United States President Donald Trump said he would push to “stop all wars” and leave a legacy of a “peacemaker and unifier”.
But six months in, missiles are flying across the Middle East after Israel attacked Iran, risking an all-out regional war that could drag US troops into the conflict.
The Israeli strikes on Iran, which Trump has all but explicitly endorsed, are now testing the president’s promise to be a harbinger of peace.
They are also dividing his base, with many right-wing politicians and commentators stressing that unconditional support for Israel is at odds with the “America First” platform on which Trump was elected.
“There is a very strong sense of betrayal and anger in many parts of the ‘America First’ base because they have truly turned against the idea of the US being involved in or supporting any such wars,” said Trita Parsi, executive vice president at the Quincy Institute, a US think tank that promotes diplomacy.
