The Times of Israel: US Helped Lull Iran Into Belief No Attack Imminent

The US was in on it, part of the deception operation

Published: June 13, 2025, 5:21 am

    The US participated in a massive campaign to lull Iran into thinking an attack was not going to happen immediately, Channel 12 reports.

    US President Donald Trump said Thursday that an Israeli strike on Iran’s nuclear sites “could very well happen” but advised against it, saying the possibility of a deal was “fairly close” if Tehran compromises on its atomic ambitions in ongoing talks with the US.

    US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee said in an interview yesterday that Israel was unlikely to attack Iran without a green light from Washington.
