Israel is considering a military strike on Iran's nuclear facilities due to growing concerns about Iran's advancing nuclear weapons capability. Recent setbacks to Iran's proxies and air defenses have weakened Iran's ability to deter an attack. Israel's motivation to strike is also fueled by the perishable advantage of Iran's weakened state and the potential decline of its disadvantage over time. Despite its weakened state, Iran remains a significant adversary for Israel in the region. The US administration's stance on supporting an Israeli strike remains uncertain, but the chance of an Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear facilities is higher now than ever before.
