In response to Jeffrey Sachs Interview on Breaking Points Podcast: The US-Israel-Iran Ceasefire

Airspace usage permits for the attack on Iran?

Jeffrey Sachs reveals the extent of the chicanery in the Israel Iran longstanding war. But there is an aspect of the Israeli and US aeroplane attacks on Iran which seems to have sailed under the radar.

Israel must have flown through Jordanian or Iraqi (even Syrian) airspace to reach Iran, while the US could have attacked from the Persian Gulf, but also seems to have overflown either Jordan or Iraq, as the B2s reportedly came from the west.

My understanding is that Iraq-Iran relations are quite good. So did the Jordanian and Iraqi Governments approve the overflights?

I have asked both ambassadors here but have not yet had a reply.
