Elon Musk has recently made headlines with his involvement in the ongoing Israel-Iran tensions. In response to rising conflict, particularly following Israeli missile strikes on Iran’s Isfahan province, Musk shared a message of peace on his social media platform X (formerly Twitter).
He urged that humanity should focus on sending rockets to space rather than using them in warfare. This statement comes at a time when tensions between Israel and Iran have escalated, with reports of missile strikes and retaliatory attacks linked to each nation’s military actions.
Musk’s message, while promoting peace, also highlights his strong connection to Israel. He has visited the country and met with key Israeli leaders, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, particularly after the October 2023 massacre by Hamas militants. His support for Israel and involvement in discussions about anti-Semitism have further fueled perceptions of his political stance, which could be seen as intimidating to adversaries like Iran in the broader context of the conflict
