Assulin, Channel 14's intelligence and security commentator, said the two leaders are far more coordinated than publicly apparent, and that joint US-Israeli operational activity is a matter of time. He described the current diplomatic phase as a global deception campaign designed to render existing alliances obsolete.
Shagiv Assulin, a prominent security commentator on Channel 14, delivered a stark assessment on Tuesday, asserting that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Donald Trump are operating with a level of coordination far exceeding public perception. According to Assulin, the 'train has already left the station,' and joint US-Israeli military action is a matter of time. He characterized the current diplomatic overtures and public signaling as a deliberate global deception campaign aimed at undermining existing alliances.
The Zioneer has previously reported Assulin's assessment that the point of no return for a frontal confrontation with Iran may have been passed from Trump's perspective. The new comments add a layer of strategic deception to that analysis, suggesting that the public posture of talks and diplomacy may be a cover for impending action.
The assessment remains an opinion from a single commentator, and no official confirmation of imminent US-Israeli operations has been provided.
