Saednews: The English media, referring to the deception of the U.S. government that led to the attack on and occupation of Iraq, outlined the serious consequences of the U.S. and U.K. involvement in the aggressive attacks by the Zionist regime, which, according to it, were carried out based on false and illegal information.
According to Saed News, the British media has described the Zionist regime’s aggression against Iran’s national sovereignty and territorial integrity as a war that was not out of necessity but at the personal request of Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of the Zionist regime, based on false information. It warned that if the U.S. and the U.K. enter this war, they will face the risk of returning to the disgraceful era of the Iraq War in 2003.
The Guardian newspaper wrote in a report on this matter: Israel’s war against Iran, like the 2003 U.S.-led invasion and occupation of Iraq, is neither legal nor just. This war is a matter of choice, not necessity, and if the U.S. or other European allies, especially the U.K., join it, they risk being dragged into another disastrous and illegal conflict in West Asia.
The British media wrote: U.S. military intervention would be a direct violation of international law. Even now, the U.S., once the architect and guardian of the international order, is one of its main violators. U.S. President Donald Trump, instead of pressuring Netanyahu to end the siege and destruction of Gaza, has fully supported him and described Israeli attacks on Iran as “great.” He has demanded Iran’s “complete surrender.” Trump is considering military attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities. This is explicitly forbidden under Article 56 of the Additional Protocol to the Geneva Convention due to the risk of nuclear radiation and contamination.
The Zionist regime’s aggressive attack on Iran’s nuclear, military, and residential areas began in the early hours of June 13 (23 Khordad) and resulted in the martyrdom of several military commanders, nuclear scientists, and civilian citizens.
Iranian armed forces’ successful operations to repel the Zionist enemy’s aggression, while delivering a crushing response to this aggression in the “Vade Sadeq 3” operation, continue.
Meanwhile, the Zionist regime intends to drag the U.S., which was aware of this aggression and has fully supported it, into direct military participation in this war. Washington’s messages about its intention to intervene militarily in this conflict are contradictory, considering the possibility of advancing a diplomatic process with Iran.
Iranian officials have warned of a decisive response to any third-party involvement in this conflict.
On the other hand, regional and international officials, as well as analysts, have seriously warned about the consequences of attacking Iran’s nuclear facilities due to the risk of humanitarian and environmental disasters caused by nuclear radiation from explosions.

Even if Iran is building a nuclear weapon, international law does not give Israel or the U.S. the right to bomb Iran.
Continuing this article, referring to the possibility of British military intervention in this conflict in support of the Zionist regime, it stated: Meanwhile, the U.K. must be cautious. It is said that the Attorney General has warned that any British military intervention beyond defensive aid would be illegal. Apparently, Richard Heimer, the senior legal advisor to the government, has also raised domestic concerns about the legality of joining a bombing campaign.
The article stated: The Zionist regime’s justification for carrying out preemptive attacks and Washington’s quiet complicity is concerning. The main claim is that Iran was advancing toward “weaponizing its uranium,” and Netanyahu repeatedly warned that Tehran was reaching a point of no return in building a nuclear weapon.
The Guardian, pointing to contradictions in Netanyahu’s claims about the military nature of Iran’s nuclear program and the U.S. intelligence community’s assessment, wrote: Netanyahu’s narrative is completely at odds with the U.S. intelligence community’s assessment, which stated that Iran is not actively pursuing the construction of a nuclear weapon and is at least three years away from acquiring the capability to do so. Even the CIA opposes Israel’s claim that Iran is close to a nuclear breakout threshold.
The article continued, noting that “Tulsi Gabbard,” U.S. Director of National Intelligence, testified in March before Congress that Iran was not building a nuclear weapon and that Iran’s Supreme Leader has not permitted a military nuclear program. It wrote: Even if Iran were building a nuclear weapon, international law does not grant Israel or the U.S. the right to bomb Iran. The UN Charter is clear about the use of force in international relations.
The British media noted that Trump has rejected the U.S. intelligence community’s findings in this regard and wrote: Netanyahu and Trump’s narrative also contradicts findings by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Rafael Grossi, the IAEA director-general, said on June 17 that there was “no evidence” that Iran has been systematically pursuing nuclear weapons.

Trump on the verge of repeating “America’s greatest mistake”
The report, with this background on the dangers of U.S. military intervention in this aggression, stated: U.S. military intervention will further break apart the rule-based global order and make future conflicts more unpredictable and dangerous. Other powerful countries may also resort to this approach under the pretext of preventing real or perceived threats to their national security to carry out offensive attacks. Today it is Israel and the U.S.; tomorrow, China might use the same mindset to justify an attack on Taiwan.
The British media continued by referring to the Zionist regime’s aggression on Iran as having been carried out with “fabricated information,” writing: Netanyahu was one of the staunch supporters of the neocon movement at the time, which tried to push the George W. Bush administration into attacking Iraq with claims about weapons of mass destruction held by Saddam Hussein’s government and its ties to terrorism. Bush started the war with claims of huge stockpiles of biological weapons held by Iraq’s government, while the CIA said, “We don’t know whether Iraq has nuclear weapons or not.” Bush knew but lied.
Although it seems Trump is now falling into the same trap, the Guardian wrote: Trump himself has openly criticized this deception and said Bush’s decision to attack Iraq was “the worst decision any U.S. president could have made in history. There were no weapons of mass destruction, and they (the Bush administration) knew it.” However, Trump seems to be repeating the same mistake today.
The British media warned: Although the U.S. has no plan for a ground attack on Iran, any attack on Tehran carries the risk of full-scale regional war. Iran has repeatedly threatened to retaliate for such actions by attacking U.S. bases in Iraq, Bahrain, and the wider Gulf region. For example, Iran could mine the Strait of Hormuz, a critical passage for global energy flow. The consequences of this action could spread globally, affecting energy markets, causing inflation, weakening confidence in the U.S. dollar, and possibly triggering an economic recession.
The Guardian wrote: Even Yemen’s Houthis (Ansar Allah movement), who have less military capability than Iran, have managed to severely disrupt and damage shipping in the Red Sea. If the U.S. joins Israel’s war, Iran may block trade routes, causing oil prices to rise.
