And if there is no deal, we will face options for an Israeli prime minister. Israel has the capability." military to attack Iran," Yadlin said, citing The Jerusalem Post November 5.
Regarding a possible Israeli attack on Iran, Yadlin said: "Naftali Bennett as prime minister must decide, whether to do nothing or carry out an attack. An attack is the last step, after all other strategies have been carried out. I am happy, we have understood the budget needs to be allocated.
He said the military plan needed to be updated for the current situation. According to him, although Israel has the military capability to attack Iran, the problem is not the attack, but what happens after. There are many considerations.
"Iran has recognized America's desire under President Biden's Administration to return to the deal.

In the end it worked in their favor and is now putting pressure on America," Yadlin said.
"The 2015 deal is good in the long term for Iran, they want sanctions removed from them. Still no need for a military option, but it should be more credible, more on the US side than here," Yadlin concluded.
