Israel's Sabotage Attacks Have Backfired Spectacularly

The campaign to “thwart” Iran’s nuclear program has completely backfired, and the Israeli government’s answer to this failure is to do even more of the things that produced worse outcomes.

The Wall Street Journal reports that the Israeli government is increasing its sabotage and assassination attacks inside Iran:

Israel is intensifying its campaign to thwart Iran’s nuclear, missile and drone programs with a series of covert operations targeting a broader range of key targets, said people familiar with the effort.

The report acknowledges that Israel’s sabotage operations have failed, but it doesn’t provide readers with the necessary information to understand that the sabotage operations have directly led to the expansion of Iran’s nuclear program over the last year and a half.
