Israel Eyes Nearing Iran Deal
(Breaking Defense) Arie Egozi - With signs that an agreement is close on restarting the Iran nuclear deal, Israel is indicating that military action against Tehran is again on the table as a response, although leaders in Israel have been careful not to publicly criticize the Biden administration. Israel has also made it clear it does not feel bound by any agreement. Behind the scenes, Israel has repeatedly delivered information to Washington showing what it describes as bad-faith actions from Iran that should disqualify it from receiving the benefits it would get in any return to the deal. Israeli National Security Adviser Eyal Hulata is in Washington this week to share with American defense officials more details of what Israel calls "the Iranian nuclear scam." The Israeli intelligence community feels the White House has ignored the information presented by Israel because it is set on rolling back the Trump decision to kill the Iran agreement. "We have proved again and again by hard intelligence evidence that Teheran is lying continuously, and does not intend to fulfill everything it will promise to do in the framework of a new agreement," a senior Israeli defense source said.
