Israeli political analyst Yaakov Bardugo said Friday morning that the current situation puts the US-Iran agreement to the test and shows that Iran and its proxies have no intention of upholding it. Separately, Bardugo stated in a follow-up message that Prime Minister Netanyahu will know how to clarify Israel's red lines for a response to the killing of Israeli soldiers.
Israeli political analyst Yaakov Bardugo published two posts Friday morning addressing the state of the US-Iran agreement and Israel's expected response to the killing of several of its soldiers.
In his first post, Bardugo said the day's events put the deal to the test, as Iran and its proxies show no willingness to abide by it. The remarks appear to follow an overnight incident that resulted in the deaths of Israeli soldiers, though the analyst did not specify the event or the number of casualties.
In a second post, Bardugo argued that Israeli blood is no less red than American blood, and that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will know how to make Israel's red lines clear in response to the soldiers' deaths. The analyst has in recent weeks repeatedly criticized the emerging US-Iran nuclear framework, calling it a failure and warning that it emboldens the Islamic Republic.
Bardugo's remarks reflect a view common among Israeli security commentators that the agreement — reportedly close to finalization — does not address Iran's aggressive behavior through its proxies. No official Israeli government statement has been released on the morning's events or on any planned response.
