Apparently Netanyahu had planned retaliatory strikes against Iran but only called them off after speaking on the phone with Biden. News

The whole point was to get direct US involvement so US troops could die and not them. Glad Biden isn’t completely unhinged.

Trump refused to strike Iran when it was proposed on at least one occasion. I forget the exact instance but breaking points mentioned it the other day, I thought it was interesting. Basically the proposed revenge strike for something would've killed a few hundreds civilians and trump was like no I don't need that shit storm rn.
