- Israeli official says Iran war may not have been worth launching
A senior Israeli official questioned whether Israel's war against Iran was worth launching due to its political consequences. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defended the operation, claiming it prevented Iran from developing nuclear weapons and saved Israel from 'nuclear annihilation,' while critics argue the conflict caused internal divisions and a strategic defeat following a US-Iran peace agreement.
