This is a poll-driven info op. Netanyahu is giving Trump space to do the honors, deliver the death blow to Iran’s nuclear program. For a single air raid like Osirak in 81, done in the teeth of enemy air defenses, US help would be indispensable against a well-fortified installation. Today, with Iranian air space in Israeli hands, it has time to bomb at leisure with smaller warheads, the way a miner or a tunnel builder would.

And for the US to rubble that facility could mark the final repudiation of Iraq Syndrome, where the US was loath to act in its own interests for fear of chimerical detrimental side effects
