Israelische und arabische Beamte haben privat vorgeschlagen, dass die USA ihre Angriffe auf den Iran zurückhalten sollten

The Israeli and Arab officials have suggested that President Donald Trump, who is [weighing ](https://www.nbcnews.com/world/iran/iran-threatens-attacks-us-bases-trump-intervenes-protests-death-toll-rcna253416)military action in Iran in response to the regime’s deadly crackdown on [protesters](https://www.nbcnews.com/world/iran/iran-trump-tariffs-crackdown-protests-regime-rcna253731), hold back on large-scale strikes for now, with some of them preferring to wait until the regime is even more strained, the sources said. They also noted the situation in Iran is rapidly developing, with the stability of the regime potentially changing quickly in one direction or the other.

The conversations, which have involved American political and military leaders, underscore the complex dynamic Trump faces as he weighs possible options for U.S. action in Iran. Trump, who is expected hold a meeting Tuesday with his national security team to review options, has threatened Iran with U.S. military action if the regime is [killing protesters](https://www.nbcnews.com/world/iran/iran-protests-tehran-bodies-morgue-supreme-leader-ali-khamenei-regime-rcna253551).

White House officials have said Trump is considering a range of possible options as protests enter their third week, including ones that don’t involve military force. Members of Trump’s national security team held a meeting Tuesday morning on Iran that he did not attend, according to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt.

Trump wants to jump the gun, but his allies are wanting to see how things play out first; I guess once it’s clear the gov’t has no chance *then* the US can intervene in earnest. Otherwise, if the gov’t somehow makes a sudden recovery (whatever chance that may be), a pre-emptive strike might give Iran good reason to lash out and possibly draw in support/allies.

I don’t buy that Israel is pushing for restraint here. Not in its interests.

Yeah, they’re happy seeing more innocent people killed
