🛡️ NETANYAHU ADVANCES TRUMP TALKS DEMANDING IRAN NUCLEAR DISMANTLEMENT, MISSILE RANGE LIMITS, AND AXIS ROLLBACK AS U.S. EXPANDS REGIONAL FORCE PREPARATIONS

🇮🇱🇺🇸 Trump–Netanyahu Meeting and Israel’s Negotiation Position: PM Netanyahu’s Office said the Prime Minister is expected to meet with President Trump this coming Wednesday in Washington to discuss negotiations with Iran. The PMO stated: "The prime minister believes that any negotiations must include limitations on ballistic missiles and an end to support for the Iranian axis."

The meeting was originally expected for February 18 and was moved up by a week. Netanyahu will hold key security consultations tomorrow ahead of his Tuesday flight to Washington, D.C., and is expected to return to Israel by Friday.

Ahead of the meeting, Israel’s position on Iran is described as: complete dismantling of Iran’s nuclear program, zero uranium enrichment, no enrichment capability, removal of all enriched material from Iran, limitation of Iranian missile range to 300 km, dismantling of the Shiite axis, and strict, effective, and verifiable oversight.

♟️ U.S. Objectives, Force Posture, and Planning Constraints: In talks with senior Israeli officials, American officials did not mention the goal of "regime change" in Iran, but rather "changing the regime's behavior". The U.S. had hoped that striking Iranian nuclear facilities during the June war would bring about such a change, but they were disappointed.

The U.S. continues to reinforce forces in the region. Military planners assess that current assets deployed in the Middle East would not be sufficient to conduct a large-scale campaign, and they are preparing for a much larger operation.
