Israel’s Channel 12 reports that Netanyahu’s government proposed to Trump that they should strike Iran’s energy infrastructure to accelerate the collapse of the regime.
The report says Israeli officials have proposed a plan to Trump alleging there is a window of opportunity to topple the Iranian regime through the financial crash caused by potential strikes on energy infrastructure.
That’s certainly not helping sentiment and that kind of crash might be the thing to topple a few countries’ governments, especially if Iran makes good on threats to hit energy infrastructure in the region in response.
Stock markets are now negative on the day with the S&P 500 down 10 points after climbing by 50 premarket. WTI crude oil is up $3.82 to $103.46, near the highs of the day.
A separate Y-Net report says that whatever the US decides on dealing with Iran will be acceptable to Tel Aviv.
