An analysis published by The Zioneer on Tuesday evening criticizes the emerging deal between President Trump and Turkish President Erdoğan, warning that Israel must not rely on foreign alliances. The piece quotes Numbers 23:9, arguing that Israel was designed to stand alone so that God receives the glory.
The analysis, published under The Zioneer's Intelligence Desk, takes a sharp stance against the Trump-Erdoğan deal, which the author describes as arming Israel's enemies. It invokes the biblical verse Numbers 23:9 to argue that Israel's historical destiny is to stand alone, not to place trust in great powers. The piece reflects a growing current of Israeli commentary skeptical of U.S. diplomacy, particularly in light of the emerging Iran deal and the administration's outreach to Turkey. The analysis does not name specific terms of the deal but frames it as a fundamental betrayal of Israel's security interests.
