Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations says Israel has an ongoing dialogue with the United States, but its determination to strike Iran was an independent Israeli decision.

When asked in a CNN interview if Israel expected the US to assist Israel in case of an Iranian response, Israel’s UN Ambassador Danny Danon says: “Don’t think we should go into speculation.”
