  It s not a lie, but its a very unhelpful answer. I don’t know why you’re being upvoted.

    It answers the title, says why now, and refers to the POTUS and his “tendency” to act on personal rather than national interest. I don’t think it was that unhelpful, though of course it’s a simplification.

    Not really, based on what trump has said before, it’s very clear the only reason he’d start a war is to distract from domestic troubles.

    Same, this has been a multiple decade plan in the making by Netanyahu. He’s been wanting to attack Iran since forever and finally got Trump to do it.
