Iran War Underscores the Diverging Aims of U.S. and Israel

The ongoing Iran War is revealing significant differences in the strategic objectives of the United States and Israel. The U.S. approaches the conflict with a focus on global responsibilities and broader strategic goals, befitting a superpower. In contrast, Israel's perspective is primarily regional, centered on its immediate security concerns. After three weeks of conflict, these differing aims are causing their respective paths to diverge. This divergence could complicate joint efforts and future policy coordination regarding Iran.
