“The cycle of military attack and reprisal is once again dangerously in play in the Middle East. It must be broken before escalation, combined with increasingly destructive technology, one day precludes any hope of peace and security for the region. Israel’s actions make it all the more difficult for Iran, the United States, and other parties to the ongoing negotiations to reach an agreement that would prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons. Indeed, Israel’s actions may foreclose that possibility and propel Iran forward. Discussions between the United States, Iran, and other parties should continue. Israel and Iran should stand down from further military action, and Iran should cooperate with international inspectors and avoid provocative uranium enrichment steps while these conversations go on.”
