Israel Expects US Intervention If Gaza War Escalates

Israeli National Security Advisor Tzachi Hanegbi predicted today, Tuesday, that the United States would intervene if the war in Gaza escalated to the point of Iran and Hezbollah joining the Palestinian Islamist movement "Hamas." In a press conference broadcasted on television, Hanegbi referenced expressions of support from US President Joe Biden, which included the deployment of the US Navy in the Mediterranean and a public warning to the Lebanese group and Tehran to stay away from the conflict. Hanegbi stated, "This makes clear to our enemies that once they even imagine participating in an attack on Israeli citizens, there will be American intervention." He added, without going into details, "Israel will not be alone... US power is here and ready."
