I misremembered it as being about Iran back then too, but yeah. It’s the War on Terror excuse all over again.
The other person explained the excuse. The real reason is: Netanyahu’s government was in danger of dissolution in the Knesset and before the attack only survived with two votes, so netanyahu’s auto-coup required another push.
