01 · THE DISPATCH

Commentator Avi Shushan assessed Thursday evening that the emerging US-Iran agreement is a staged performance intended to produce a show of progress ahead of the US elections, predicting that fighting between the parties will resume after the vote. His assessment was quoted by journalist Yinon Magal on Telegram.

The Zioneer has extensively covered Israeli skepticism regarding the US-Iran track in recent days. Multiple analysts and officials — including Dr. Doron Matza, a senior Israeli source, Amichai Stein (i24NEWS), and commentator Yair Goldblatt — have expressed varying degrees of doubt about the substance and durability of any emerging arrangement, describing it as a non-binding memorandum of understanding, a strategic risk for Israel, or a cover for shelved Iranian retaliation. Shushan's comment adds a directly political time-bomb framing to this critical consensus.

No further details were provided on the nature of the expected fighting or the timeline. The assessment is a personal analysis by Shushan, not an official position.
