Netanyahu Calls Trump Daily to Push for New Iran Strikes, FT Reports

The reported daily lobbying is a signal that Israeli policy toward Iran is being pushed through a direct personal channel to the White House rather than the usual diplomatic machinery — and that the push is contested inside Washington as well as by regional partners. The Gulf and other regional leaders' alarm matters because their airspace, logistics and diplomatic cover are practical constraints on any strike, not just commentary. The open question is whether that internal and regional resistance holds, or whether the lobbying shifts the decision. Watch for any change in tone from Washington or the region.
