Israel's precision attack on Iran's military and military infrastructure can open a rare strategic window for the Trump administration. With experts who tell Fox News Digital, the United States has the opportunity to press Tehran towards a nuclear agreement, one that could not have been achieved only through diplomacy.

The Israeli army told Fox News Digital that the operation in Iran was carried out by Israeli forces but in coordination with the United States. Although US troops did not participate in the attack, defense cooperation continued throughout the strike, and during Iran's reprisals on Friday, when US forces helped intercept attacks with Iranian missiles against Tel Aviv.

“This was an Israeli operation,” said an FDI official, “but we were very coordinated with Americans. There was real -time intelligence and continuous contact.”

Avner Golov, vice president of Mind Israel, told Fox News Digital “we are not trying to attract the United States: Israel is the correct model for how a responsible ally looks: doing hard work, asking for minimum support and offering strategic value.”

He added: “No one wants a war. Israel achieved this result in just a few days. It was effective and disciplined. We do not want to remain in a prolonged war, and we certainly do not want to drag the United States to one. Israel is the model, a way for the United States to remain globally influential through a couple that offers results with a minimum investment.”

Robert Greenway, director of the Allison Center for National Security at The Heritage Foundation, Said, “The President's Messaging So Far Has Been Careful to Distinguish that thatSe attacks are unilateral Israeli Actions – Not Us Attacks. But if us ASSETS WER ATTACLED, WE WOUD BECOME A PARTISTANT – AND IRAN CANK HANDLE ISRAEL, LET ALONE THE UNITED STATES. “

“The president made it clear that he preferred a diplomatic solution,” Greenway added, “I think he was sincere, although he knows the Iranians well. He anticipated that the perspectives could have been remote, but it was worth trying.”

“The president is basically saying this in the registry: the Israelis hit you. Now we have signed a good agreement and we are ready to sign an agreement …”

Eyal added that part of the media coverage before the attack may have been deliberately misleading, part of a broader psychological operation to confuse Iran's leadership over the moment and reach of the strike.

“We have information that indicates the possibility that much of the publications and some stories that were published point after Sunday, after negotiations with Oman, and the fact that Americans would play with this role that contributes with another important cooperation, between Israel and the United States, in terms of strike.”

Avner Golov, vice president of Mind Israel, told Fox News Digital that the strike was the culmination of a broader Israeli campaign to neutralize three fronts: Hamas in Gaza, Iran's proxy network throughout the region, and now the nuclear program within Iran.

“Since October 7, we have been fighting two wars: one on the Palestinian front in Gaza, and another against Iran, which has invested in a vast network of proxies, regional associations and a missile and UAV program. During the last year and a half, we have attacked both sands and a superiority wins. Now, we have started an operation against the third strategic essay.”

Golov said this is the time for the United States to intervene and deliver a message that the escalation will trigger the US consequences, not only the Israelis.

“Ultimately, what we want is for the United States to tell Iran: 'Israel reached its nuclear and military goals, avoided civil infrastructure and did not touch the regime. If it now increases … Keep in mind that we are in this now, and it is a completely different game.'”

He stressed that the military victory must now be sealed with a political event, ideally, one that leads Iran to the negotiating table. “The nuclear problem cannot be solved by a single military event, but this creates a solid basis for a policy. Coordination with the United States is absolutely crucial.”

Greenway told Fox News Digital: “Having taken the strike, as the president said, this opens the door to continuous negotiation. Obviously, there are now different circumstances. Iran has less capacity than yesterday, and will have even less tomorrow.

“Every day that passes, every strike that lands, Iran has less to offer in resistance. At some point, I think there is a good possibility of choosing to negotiate.”

The strike also revealed the participation of the United States in the defensive front. When Iran launched missiles towards Israeli cities, US forces helped intercept them, a movement that officials say that demonstrated an American commitment without triggering climbing.

“As a practical issue, this is our best collective opportunity to cause so much damage to Iran's nuclear program and its offensive retaliation capabilities as possible,” Greenway said. “From a strictly military point of view, this is a window of opportunity.”

Trump retired from Iran's original nuclear agreement during his first term, citing his failure to avoid the ambition of long -term nuclear weapons from Tehran. Although Iran has never been allowed to obtain a bomb, recent reports suggest that it can support a revised agreement that allows uranium enrichment for civil purposes.

Golov said the numbers now favor the US. UU. If it acts quickly. “We have optimized our numbers and we are reaching yours. Eventually, the Iranians will have to accept the US proposal, and that proposal should be on the table now.”
