What do you think will happen if Iranians cross their Red Lines I.e hitting these bases?
There is some reason why nobody in region dares to run-over those bases despite hating the US from the core of their hearts .
And about Israel,I think they will respond but that response will be very calibrated since Israeli focus is HZ now.Though i have gut feeling that Mossad is thinking something really nasty about regime in Tehran.
Israel is not the US that can fight at so many fronts at a time.
There is a reason Iraqis, who just killed some Israelis as I posted above, are not targeting the Americans who are much more close and vulnerable. The losses to Iran will be catastrophic but the losses to any American Presidency when thousands (yes!) of casualties arrive in America would also be suicidal. The Biden administration already got chewed out over the loss of the 13 Marines in Kabul in August 2021. In short, destroying Iran at the expense of the American human and material assets is too high a price to pay. Iran is like the North Korea of the Middle East: American can surely put North Korea to the Stone Age but the cost would be too high.
But you maybe right: Israelis would do a calibrated response. They will have to do something but I doubt the Americans are going to like anything which would provoke an all out war between America and Iran. But then Netanyahu rules America. Multiple analysts in America have been saying that the Pentagon and the State Dept are trying to stop Netanyahu from further escalation but it is President Biden who is unwilling to exercise the real power.
