...The Americans chose to ignore the Iranian missile industry, which covers the whole Middle East and makes it all the way to Israel. This obligates Israel to continue to plan Israeli outlines for attacks or defense,” he writes. “Israel needs to follow closely the Iranian buildup.… With time the world will drop its interest in intelligence from Iran, but Israel doesn’t have that privilege: As the world returns to dozing, Israel will need to up its intelligence investment against [Iran.]”
And that’s exactly what Israel plans on doing, according to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, quoted in Israel Hayom. Whereas Yedioth makes Israel seem alone in the fight against Iran, Israel Hayom claims that much of the Middle East is worried about the turn of events, though it does nothing to flesh out that fact in its klix reporting.
One thing the paper is sure of is the perfidiousness of US President Barack Obama in striking the deal, with Boaz Bismuth writing like a lover scorned about how Washington’s attitude toward Tehran shows that the ayatollahs are the president’s true love, employing some Purim-story language to drive home his point.
“Thus shall it be done to the country whom Obama delighteth to honor: He’ll sign a dubious nuclear deal with it; free or stop proceedings against 21 people as part of a prisoner exchange, including three Iranian-Americans accused of breaking the sanctions, and wonder about the lack of luck that Jonathan Pollard wasn’t Iranian; ignore the ballistic missile tests the Iranians performed lately, which clearly broke UN Security Council resolutions; apologize a week ago over the detainment of 10 American sailors, as if the Revolutionary Guards who held them were angels,” he writes, the sour grapes spilling from his pen. “Thus will be done to Iran, the country which set up for President Obama his legacy and got in return excellent standing for the Islamic Republic. Welcome to the new American era: Iran — in, Gulf countries — out.”
In Haaretz, Chemi Shalev says Obama’s diplomatic victory is being viewed as possible proof that Iran is becoming more moderate. It’s a feeling echoed by some in Jerusalem, though those willing to say so are becoming fewer and fewer, he writes.
“Although Iran remains a dangerous, aggressive, terror-supporting state, the positive conclusion of the secret negotiations on the prisoner release — together with the quick resolution of the captured US sailors in the Persian Gulf last week — enforces the perception that moderates are gaining strength in Tehran; that they are complying with their commitments under the nuclear deal (as the IAEA confirmed Saturday); and that they wish to put Iran on a less belligerent course in the international arena. Obama and his officials view the cup as half-full; they believe that the moderates should be strengthened through compromise and dialogue. Their critics and adversaries see the cup as half-empty; they prefer a policy of force and intimidation,” he writes.
“Among Israelis who are engaged in national security intelligence and assessments, there are many who discern a much more complex landscape than the black-and-white picture emanating from the Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem. Their voices, however, grow steadily fainter, for fear of the harsh criticism repeatedly leveled at them by cabinet ministers and apprehension that their careers would suffer as a result. Thus, Israel exempts itself from examining whether new opportunities exist that might require some adjustments — never mind a complete overhaul — in its single-minded policy toward Iran,” continues Shalev.
There’s another voice that also won’t be heard by Jerusalem, that of a spy who infiltrated the office of Palestine Liberation Organization negotiator Saeb Erekat and sent intelligence to the powers that be in the Jewish state, and who has now been found out, Yedioth reports.
The paper, citing a senior Palestinian source, writes that the agent held a senior position in Erekat’s office and had access to secret Palestinian documents regarding talks with Israel.
“A Palestinian security source said the Palestinian security service followed the suspect for a long time and that he was arrested in Ramallah,” the paper reports. “The source added that the suspect admitted to the charges against him, but the investigation is continuing to fill in the full picture and to understand the extent of the damage caused on the Palestinian side. The source noted that the Palestinian Authority is checking the depth of the damage caused to them as a result of the sensitive documents being leaked for so long.”
