<p>Israel is reportedly considering carrying out &#8220;significant strikes&#8221; against Iran&#8217;s nuclear sites this year, according to an analysis from U.S. intelligence agencies.</p>
<p>The Wall Street Journal <a href="https://www.wsj.com/world/middle-east/israel-sees-opening-for-strikes-on-iranian-nuclear-sites-u-s-intelligence-warned-76a7fa24" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> that the analysis, which was done during the final days of the Biden administration, concluded that Israel is looking to take maximal advantage of Iran&#8217;s weakened state.</p>
<p>A subsequent report created after Trump took office produced similar findings, the report said.</p>
<p>Officials familiar with the report said that it indicated Israel believes President Donald Trump is far more likely to support Israel&#8217;s decision to take out the nuclear sites than former President Joe Biden.</p>
<p>The U.S. military believes that it would need to supply specific munitions for the strike given that one of the facilities is buried under a mount and the U.S. is the only country in the world that has powerful enough bunker buster bombs to reach it.</p>
<p>The report said in-part:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>In December, the U.S. intelligence community issued its sharpest warning yet that Iran could move to develop nuclear weapons. Iran has amassed a large stockpile of highly enriched uranium and is thought to have been working on the technical details of completing work on a bomb should it make the political decision to go ahead.</em></p>
<p><em>Iran has long forsworn development of a nuclear weapon, but the December report concluded the risks have increased that it could change its mind to develop an effective deterrent, pointing to a public debate in the country over going nuclear. Israel over the past year wiped out the top leadership and much of the arsenal amassed by Lebanese militia Hezbollah, an Iran ally and a deterrent to Israeli attacks, and crippled Iran’s air defenses.</em></p>
<p><em>The fall of the Assad regime in Syria also deprived Iran of one of its most important allies and a crucial platform for projecting power in the region. Meanwhile, Iranian missile strikes against Israel in retaliation for Israeli attacks have failed to do much damage.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Iran is also dealing with a weakened economy that is likely to be further weakened by President Donald Trump&#8217;s new maximum pressure campaign against the country.</p>
<p>While Trump has signaled at times that he is open to diplomacy with Iran, he has always sent strong signals that he is prepared to use the U.S. military to deal with the Islamic regime if need be, which comes after the country has repeatedly tried to assassinate Trump over the last year.</p>
