“Are we faced with Israel’s much-heralded war against Iran? What exactly is Benjamin Netanyahu’s goal?” This is the question with which Lilli Gruber, host of Otto e mezzo, La7’s pre-evening talk show, welcomes Lucio Caracciolo. The director of Limes, a geopolitical magazine, responds thus during the April 19 episode: “The triangle phase, which began in Damascus on April 1 with the Israeli attack on the Iranian consulate where a general and other officers were killed . Consulate so to speak, because I don’t think they were there to renew the passport. Then there was the forced Iranian response, so forced that they all agreed so that nothing would happen, the one on Saturday night. Tonight there was the Israeli attack, about which we know very little, but whose consequences we can see very well, that is, the response more or less equal to what the Iranians had done with a little more technology, to say that this round is closed. What we will now see will therefore not be another episode of the more or less fake duel between Iran and Israel, but will be in Gaza, the final attack on Rafah. Because what Israel gave to America on Iran will somehow have to be returned on Rafah.”
“So will the Israelis make the last assault?”, Gruber asks Caracciolo after the long analysis of the war scenarios, with the expert replying: “They certainly can’t end like this. I don’t know what will happen, it will definitely be a massacre. It could happen that somehow the Palestinians will break the barriers or the Israelis will bomb the walls, so that it will be Egypt’s problem.”
