Israel Enjoys a Historic Peak in Cooperation with U.S.
(Israel Hayom) Or Shaked - Israeli UN Ambassador Danny Danon said, "We are at a historic peak in terms of U.S.-Israel cooperation. This is a rock-solid alliance built on shared values and interests - but it has never reached the level it is at today. We are truly fighting together, sharing intelligence at the highest levels, and in the diplomatic arena too - shoulder-to-shoulder." "One of the reasons we are not attacked more [at the UN] is because the U.S. is part of this [Iran] campaign. If Israel were facing Iran alone, you would see a completely different discourse - in the Security Council, in the positions, in the debates, even from the UN secretary-general. Everyone is being careful." "I sit and write my speeches, and [U.S.] Ambassador Mike Waltz sits with his team - and suddenly you realize the speeches sound as if they were written together. We speak the same language, and that is significant." American support has been visible on Lebanon as well. The U.S. saw "that the other side hadn't kept its commitments. Now that we are acting, they told us, 'You were right, you gave it time, you shared the intelligence, the other side didn't deliver - and now you have our backing to do what needs to be done.'"
