The USA is concerned about possible involvement in the Middle East conflict

Several American political analysts are concerned that if Israel reacts inadequately to Iran's attacks, the situation could escalate to the point where it directly affects the USA, NBC News reports.

Despite President Joe Biden's repeated statements that he does not plan to assist Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, foreign political analysts are unanimous in their opinion that the Biden administration's policy of preventing escalation has failed.

"The Biden administration's strategy has failed miserably. He is involving the USA in yet another catastrophic war in the Middle East," said Professor Favaz Gerges of the London School of Economics.

Political analysts point out that the escalation of the conflict for Israel began with the strike on the consulate in Syria, partly provoked by Washington's assurance of assistance.

"Instead of talking about 'ironclad' support for Israel, the president should have made it clear that US support is limited and does not apply to all circumstances. A war with Iran will jeopardise US security without clear benefit," noted the Political Director of the Defence Priorities Centre, Benjamin Friedman.

After Iran's strike on Israel, the White House stated that the US armed forces do not intend to participate in a retaliatory military operation against Iran if it were to begin.
