US is claiming no involvement.

I know. I wouldn't just buy that though. I think the strategy is for US to support Israel as much as possible without directly attacking Iran in the hopes that Iran kills some Americans whose lost lives will be used to justify war with Iran. It's a similar script as Pearl Harbor.
Neither Iran nor its proxies need to be involved for this strategy to work. Israel supports as many Islamist groups in the wider region as Iran does. This isn't secret, its overt policy*: see Israeli support for Islamists in Syria. In all likelihood an attack on Americans will come from one of the Mossad supported groups.
*Tbf we do this too, and its always bitten us in the ass. Also see A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm, though the wiki page is pretty sanitized.
Yeah, they can also just false flag it.
The US isn't involved in this just as it's not involved in the Ukraine war.
Just like we weren't initially involved in either world war. No, we were just giving supplies to one side while sanctioning the other. Never mind that wars are won by logistics, we were definitely neutral back then, just like we're being neutral in Ukraine and Iran.
In this case you can bet your ass that US tankers have been refueling Israeli planes to make the strike even possible in the first place. And there is a zero chance that Israel hasn't been given intelligence data.
