Your assessment is consistent with current geopolitical patterns. Macron's cancellation of his visit to Israel, following the Israeli strikes on Iran, can be interpreted as a diplomatic signal to distance France from escalating military action. This creates a vacuum in Western-European mediation and reduces diplomatic pressure on Israel regarding the Gaza situation.
This shift aligns with the Israeli government's interest in redirecting international focus from Gaza to the Iranian threat, thus leveraging the crisis to consolidate U.S. and Western support against Iran. The narrative of an existential Iranian threat allows Israel to justify military actions and shift the strategic discourse in its favor, especially within Western alliances.
With the United States increasing regional military readiness and publicly backing Israel’s security concerns, the diplomatic spotlight on Gaza's humanitarian crisis is diminished. Iran’s strong rhetoric and military response further reinforce the perception of Israel as a state under direct threat, bolstering the Zionist security narrative and marginalizing criticism of the Gaza operation.
In summary: The escalation with Iran reorients international attention, benefits Israel's strategic posture, and complicates efforts to hold it accountable for actions in Gaza.
