to continue the negotiations that were already scheduled rather than sending missiles into Iran when they did.
Netanyahu claimed in an interview on Sunday that he shared intelligence with the US that Iran could have developed a nuclear weapon within months or a year, although that was not the conclusion of US intelligence agencies, based on the CNN report. But even based on Netanyahu’s own timeline, the US would have had time to continue negotiations with Iran.
Israel attacked Iran two days before another round of negotiations between the US and Iran was set to be held. Trump had been demanding that Iran eliminate its nuclear enrichment program, which was a non-starter for Tehran. Despite the apparent impasse, Iran was set to present a counter-proposal to the US, but the talks were canceled after Israel launched its war.
