The consequences of Israeli’s attack on Iran
Black Spy Podcast, 197, Season 20, Episode 0008
In this week’s Black Spy Podcasts, Carlton King looks at the potential consequences of the Israeli attack on Iran.
Immediate Outcomes:
Carlton argues that Israel’s sneak attack on Iran, targeting strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, top military leadership and nuclear scientists and their families during talks with the US to come to a diplomatic arrangement meant Iran must retaliate.
Regional Escalation:
A full-scale war could engulf Lebanon, Syria, and Gaza, with Israel fighting on multiple fronts. Hezbollah's involvement would likely lead to heavy bombardment of northern Israel. Civilian casualties and infrastructure damage could be high on both sides. The conflict might destabilize fragile states like Iraq and further fuel sectarian divisions.
Global Involvement:
The United States, arguably controlled by Israel due to penetration of the US legislature and other key US entities, could be fully drawn in to the conflict either through direct military support for Israel or the defense of Gulf allies and shipping lanes. Conversely, Iran may receive backing—political or logistical—from Russia or China, increasing global tensions. Gulf states like Saudi Arabia and the UAE, already wary of Iranian influence, might support Israel covertly, especially if Iran were to target their oil infrastructure..
Conclusion:
A war between Israel and Iran could rapidly spiral into a broader regional or even global conflict, involving major powers and destabilizing the already fragile Middle East. The best-case future hinges on effective diplomacy and containment; the worst-case scenario risks a devastating, multi-front war with long-term consequences.
