Israel Launches Attacks Against Iran; Iran Begins Retaliation
Posted on June 13, 2025 by Yves Smith

Alastair Crooke had said that Israel regarded June as the critical time frame for acting against Iran, because after that, it would not be possible to trigger the snapback provisions in the JCPOA and have the process come to resolution before the snapback expired in October. The Israel attack on Iran proves that assessment to be correct. However, the status of Iran’s nuclear program is simply a pretext. Most experts agree that Israel is seeking regime change.

Nevertheless, Israel is pretending to observe forms, asserting that it had new intelligence that said that Iran was on the verge of developing nuclear weapons. Various YouTubers (at a minimum Larry Johnson and Sayed Mohammed Marandi) have been saying that for over 20 years, so why is now so special? Well, aside from the fact that Bibi is in very hot water?

Simplicius cites sources in Israel on its ambitions for this campaign, which Israel officials say will persist for weeks:

Hebrew sources: Air force attacks on Iran are divided into three main missions:

The nuclear project
Destruction of missile launch platforms
Elimination of senior regime officials

Israeli news:

Israeli Channel 14 citing an Israeli official: “We have a long and broad offensive plan for the days ahead – complex days lie ahead. The Iranians will respond, if the public is disciplined, there will be few casualties. We are at war.”
