Columnist Ariel Kahana (Israel Hayom): 'In the end, Trump will attack us'

Primary source Internal intake · 1 reviewed intake signal · Desk window 14:01

TL;DR

Columnist Ariel Kahana writes in Israel Hayom that 'the whole world will thank Trump' for attacking Iran, advancing a stated assessment that the US president will eventually strike Iranian targets. The commentary reflects an on-record opinion by a senior Israeli journalist, not an official policy announcement.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Columnist Ariel Kahana of Israel Hayom published an article Thursday afternoon in which he states that 'in the end, the whole world will thank Trump' for launching an attack against Iran. The piece formulates a personal assessment, not a report based on official sources: Kahana argues that Trump will eventually strike Iranian targets, framing it as a strategic inevitability. He does not cite specific intelligence, administration signals, or a timeline. The Zioneer's prior coverage on this subject includes several bulletins tracking Trump's statements on Iran, including his June 11 post declaring he will 'wipe Iran off the face of the earth' if a global peace deal fails, and his June 8 claim that both Israel and Iran want an immediate ceasefire. These were separate developments; this article is a new on-record opinion, not a corroborated update. As background, the desk has reported several of Trump's recent statements on Iran and Israel, but no official confirmation of an imminent strike exists.
