I think it’s highly likely that the US knows exactly where all of the Israeli nuclear weapons are, so you lead in with an alpha strike targeting all iron dome-related equipment and missile silos. Then blue helmets come at the country from all sides - the main invasion comes from the coast, but all other borders get big military checkpoints at all crossings to prevent the regime’s top officials from escaping.
You don’t think the Israelis lash out and nuke someone in that scenario? I can’t recall the exact source (and too lazy to go searching rn), but I seem to recall someone here mentioning that a retired Israeli military official said in his memoirs (huge grain of salt, obviously) that in the event of perceived “betrayal” of Israel, the nukes might be pointed at the West.
in the scenario where you blow up all the missile silos for the nukes, how are they going to nuke anyone? though I think assuming the US could get every last silo and warhead before the israelis realize what is happening is a bit optimistic

Israel has submarines capable of carrying nuclear missiles AFAIK
if it’s trident crap like the british, the americans literally have the keys to turn those off remotely, it’s really funny
