According to a report by Keren Bezzel, US intelligence assesses that Israel is expected to undermine a potential peace agreement between the United States and Iran. The warning follows a Washington Post report that the Israeli intelligence community is actively working to dismantle the US-Iran Memorandum of Understanding.
A new report from Keren Bezzel cites US intelligence assessments warning that Israel is expected to work against a peace agreement being negotiated between the United States and Iran. The assessment lends further support to a Washington Post report published earlier this evening, which stated that US intelligence had determined Israel is actively operating to dismantle the US-Iran Memorandum of Understanding.
The emerging US-Iran accord has drawn broad criticism from Israeli officials and analysts, who argue the deal grants Tehran strategic breathing room without fully dismantling its nuclear program or curbing its regional proxies. As The Zioneer reported previously, senior Israeli security officials have called the MOU a severe blow to Israeli deterrence. The latest intelligence warning underscores a growing divergence between Washington and Jerusalem over the framework of the agreement.
