It has not taken long; but even as no one will notice until it is too late that Iran's co-conspirators have been preparing and are now obtaining complicit/tacit approval to take Israel to task for even daring to follow up the initiative in annexing ancient Israeli homelands, the world is at that threshold and Iranian operatives have already fired the opening shots just days before any actual approval by the Israeli government to change sovereign status occurs. Is this still the methodology to stave off any brave actions on the part of Israel?
Some in the European Union and their other allies are vocal about keeping Israel contained; are they ready to put blood and treasure of their own to block Israel? That is probably one of the outcomes if Iran is able to get enough backing and pressure to for their own initiatives in decimating Israel.
From an outsider's perspective, There still seems to be the thought that President Trump from the United States has more to do with than what the actual reality might actually be. Since the whole process is now out of sequence from what was originally proposed, the United States is as much of an observer of the proceedings as any; there is now the appearance that the Israeli government is forging ahead with an altered pan since the government that was presented to Original Prosperity plan is no longer united in how to determine Israeli sovereignty.
The inability of any of the players in this scenario to forecast the outcome is actually what appears to be Iran's potential claim of plausible deniability; PM Abbas has already advanced his reasons for attacking Israel: who will follow that lead from the north and pledge their military support when Abbas' PA cannot get it done?
