The Straits Times reported today: "Israel told the UN Security Council that it will not stop striking Iran unless the nuclear threat from Iran is eliminated."

Comment: Israel's statement to the UN Security Council that it "will not stop striking Iran until the nuclear threat is eliminated" is essentially an extreme manifestation of its "preemptive strike" security strategy. From recent developments, the Israeli army has launched multiple precise strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities and nuclear scientists, even going so far as to attack civilian targets such as hospitals in Tehran. These "decapitation-style" military operations aim to paralyze Iran's nuclear program at its technical source. In response, Iran has taken actions under the "real commitment" series, and at 3 a.m. on the 21st, it fired more than 30 missiles across the entire territory of Israel, with the strike range covering military centers and defense enterprises. Both sides are caught in a vicious cycle of "attack-revenge".

This statement places the Security Council in an awkward position. The Israeli representative claimed at the meeting that "this is not only Israel's war, but also the world's war," effectively packaging unilateral military actions as "international obligations." In contrast, the Iranian representative sharply pointed out that Israel is the only country in the Middle East with undeclared nuclear weapons, and its attacks seriously undermine the international non-proliferation system. This exchange exposes the double standards of the Security Council when handling regional nuclear issues - when Israel launches attacks citing "nuclear threats," countries like the U.S., UK, and France, although publicly calling for restraint, have taken no substantial measures against Israel's violations of international law, while Iran's self-defense counterattacks are labeled as "destabilizing the region."

It is worth noting that the United States plays an important role in this game. Trump openly threatened Iran and claimed that "Iran could have nuclear weapons within weeks," and the U.S. will decide within two weeks whether to attack Iran.
