It seems that after the US bombings, Israel feels it has met their original goals of attacking Iran, and are ready to end the war if Iran stops attacking.
Will Iran do some performative strikes and then the whole thing will die down? Or will they seek major retribution that will cause this war to spiral and continue?
As of right now, Israel is still attacking Iran all day long. Striking military targets and production (An example from [an hour ago](https://www.ynetnews.com/article/s5i7mbu84))
Also of note, some media is reporting that Iran will soon decide if they are closing the strait of Hormuz, an action which could cause aggression from more countries against them.

I highly doubt that Khamenei is going to stop now. Their nuclear sites were just bombed and they are going to have to respond if they want to have any sense of saving face/deterrence. I know it was the US who flew the actualy mission but the US did it on behalf of Israel, and Khamenei sees both of them as responsible.

If I was Iran and I still wanted to build a bomb, I would take Israel’s offer and use the time to finish the bomb.

It makes sense now for israel to stop war with iran
Since israel and US has severely damaged Irans Nuclear facilities, Dealing a huge blow to its nuclear program, Thats was the main goal and has been accomplished, better for iran to chill out.

The Iranians don’t really have a way out of this, closing the strait of hormuz only escalates the violence and risks further destabilization of the regime. The israelis are also looking for an excuse to destroy their oil facilities in Kuzistan, and if iran is already waging an energy war against its neighbors, that could give them a pretext. Without oil revenues, the mullahs are finished, the regime might not collapse immediately, be the incentive system the central government uses to keep its minority provinces in line would collapse along with the economy.

If I am Iran, I do not retaliate strongly. Firstly I do a severe internal crackdown to identify Israeli moles and spies. I begin negotiations with the West while secretly working on further enrichment at locations that only a handful of people know about, and test a nuke as soon as possible. I might also look at buying nuclear technologies or materials from North Korea, although that might not be realistic.

I think the damage Iran did to Israel was more than expected. At least if you listen closely to the Jersualem Press Club. They said Irans modern BAs are precise and hard to intercept. Also they put a strict censorship in place – much stricter than before. Its forbidden to even film interceptions. Not a good sign. Israel is effectively cut off. Ports and Airports are closed – maybe even the military ones at risk. So they cannot prolong the war.
