I think Israel has plans to do this themselves.

Then they should go right ahead. Trump's team looking to do this sounds more like Israel First policy. I don't see how you can be America First if you're beholden to the whims of the Jewish State.

Or yknow maybe allies share the same geopolitical goals and would both benefit from a weakened Iran? This idea that the US is a puppet for Israel is maybe the most childish, inane, unintelligent, unhinged, and unrealistic take imaginable. If the US were beholden to Israel they would be doing a bit more to assist the absolute demolition of Israel’s enemies that they’re doing basically single-handedly. Yes the US supports a close ally. Stay mad about it.
