Israeli mom, political commentator, says son is certain about US strike on Iran, refuses to study for Maths test

Israeli political commentator Rachel Gur said her son is refusing to study for his math test as he's certain that the exam is going to get canceled due to an Iran attack or counterattack. "I told him a strike is unlikely before Wednesday," Gur said, adding that Wednesday is also the exam day. "The combination of Middle East politics and a teenager is exhausting," the commentator said.

The funny anecdote comes at a time when the world is closely watching the rapid developments around Iran and experts believe that Trump may give his nod for an attack any moment now. According to reports, the US's plan to attack Iran includes the first phase of a targeted strike, followed by a larger attack. The US is positioning military forces across the Middle East and they are capable of launching multiple waves of strikes into Iran if and when ordered.
