Araghchi: Israel Is Scheming to Drag the US Into War

Iran's Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi, accused Israel of attempting to draw the United States into a war with Iran, following a Time magazine report. Araghchi stated on X that Israel is conducting "a massive campaign...to deceive the US administration into an elective and unwinnable war" and using US taxpayer money to silence critics. The Time investigation alleges that a former Trump campaign manager is leading an Israel-linked influence operation to sway MAGA supporters toward Israeli policies. US Vice President JD Vance also criticized a highly funded campaign aimed at scuttling the recent US-Iran agreement, noting that elements within the Israeli government are actively trying to influence American public opinion.
