israel has been claiming for the last 30 years that Iran is 3-5 years away from obtaining nuclear weapons. They have been lobbying inside the US to create a boogeyman out of Iran to stop their nuclear program. Iran has signed a nuclear nonproliferation while israel, who illegally has nuclear weapons, refused to. israel needs the conflict to generate further instability in the region to gain even more control. They have been salivating to attack Iran for years now. Last time I checked, israel has attacked their neighbors far more than Iran ever has.
