U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance stated that Israeli authorities are running a covert influence campaign aimed at halting negotiations and sabotaging a deal, according to a Channel 14 report. Political commentator Tamir Morag assessed that Israel is treading carefully with Vance but is deeply concerned about his conduct behind the scenes.
Vice President J.D. Vance on Thursday accused the Israeli government of running a secret influence campaign to stop negotiations and torpedo a deal, according to a Channel 14 report. The accusation, made without providing specific evidence, marks the latest in a string of public confrontations between the vice president and Israeli officials over the emerging U.S.-Iran deal. As The Zioneer has previously reported, Vance has alleged that unnamed Israeli entities funded campaigns to defame him and repeated conspiracy theories linking the Mossad to Jeffrey Epstein. Political commentator Tamir Morag, speaking to Channel 14, said Israel is walking on eggshells with Vance, careful not to spark a public crisis, but is deeply worried about his conduct behind closed doors. The White House and the Israeli government have not yet responded to the latest remarks.
