Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been warning of a grave Iranian threat to Israel and the world for more than 30 years. United States President Donald Trump heeded those warnings in June and bombed Tehran's nuclear facilities. But it appears that Netanyahu is still not satisfied and will be pushing for more military actions against Iran when he returns to the US on Sunday to visit Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.
This time, the focus is on Iran's missile programme. Israeli officials and their US allies are beating the drums of war against Iran once again, arguing that Tehran's missiles must be addressed urgently. But analysts said another clash with Iran would stand in stark opposition to Trump's stated foreign policy priorities. Sina Toossi, a senior fellow at the Center for International Policy think tank, said that while Trump is pushing to deepen economic cooperation and forge diplomatic ties between Israel and Arab states, Netanyahu is seeking military domination over the region.
