Israel Seeks US Green Light to Strike Iran's Energy Infrastructure
⚡ ENERGY WAR — Israel wants Washington's blessing to hit what hurts Iran most. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Targeting refineries and export terminals goes beyond nuclear or military sites — it's economic decapitation. The ask also reveals a constraint: Israel needs explicit US cover, so this isn't unilateral. If approved, Gulf states enter the crosshairs immediately: Tehran's retaliation doctrine targets Saudi and UAE energy infrastructure in kind. Riyadh becomes a co-victim the moment it hosts the strike.
