Biden’s victory brings confrontation with Iran closer!

Israel has made no secret, through its media, its commentators and leaks from its political and security sources, that its interest is related to the retention of US President Donald Trump from a second presidential term, at the same time He realizes that his Democratic rival, John Biden, will not act against Israeli interests, even though he is concerned about the positions he had announced. The latter is aimed at its first enemy Iran, specifically in regards to the possibility of it returning to the 2015 nuclear deal, and the negative repercussions that will ensue from such a regressive step at the strategic levels.

Furthermore, Israel anticipates the possibility of change in Washington, returning to the intimidation of the war in the region against Iran. It is an intimidation directed at the White House, in order to avoid negative repercussions of this change. The irony is that Biden’s victory, which will not hurt her much in most directions and settings, specifically those in which an unalterable reality was created following Trump’s “historic” steps and decisions, does not remove her concern for the possibility of the United States returning to the nuclear deal again, which means harm. With the strategy of “strangulation” that led with the administration of Donald Trump, noting that the position on Iran and its extensions in more than one direction and arena in the region is the main criterion by which Tel Aviv takes its position on the winner in the American elections.
Meanwhile, the Israeli authorities, at the official level, are very cautious when launching positions that show their support for this or that candidate. Since you are free from useless public comments that negatively impact your interests, regardless of your actual position on any of the candidates. But with the glimpse of two hands approaching the White House, he should have warned of the consequences of his positions in Iran, if the man really preserved them. Until yesterday, it was difficult to find official Israeli positions on the two candidates, despite the fact that the Hebrew media was saturated with comments and reports, as well as leaks, which could not be taken into account to understand the official position. Consequently, any direct position issued by an Israeli official is notable and indicative, and applies to what a minister of the Likud party issued yesterday.
Settlements Minister Tzachi Hanegbi, who is also an expert on national security and “regional cooperation,” warned that Biden’s position on the nuclear deal could lead to a war between Israel and Iran, noting that “Biden has said publicly and during long time that he will return to the nuclear agreement, And I think this issue will lead to a confrontation between Israel and Iran. ”Hanegbi’s remarks came in an interview with Hebrew” Channel 13 “, in which he also confirmed that he was not concerned about the possible victory for Biden on most fronts and squares, including the settlement in the West Bank, adding that “the position on Iran is a flagrant exception.”
Hanegbi’s statement, which was an exception to the official rule of silence on comments on the American elections, is something of a reassurance for the Israeli public, after months of media campaigns of media-level intimidation about the damage of the victory. of Biden in Israel, but it also delineates the boundaries of what is acceptable and unacceptable for the Democratic candidate, specifically. Regarding the implementation of his public promise to return to the nuclear deal with Iran. However, the head of the Knesset Foreign and Security Committee, Zvi Hauser, assured the Israelis, in turn, that Biden’s victory would not harm Israel, describing Trump’s rival as a “true friend” and considering in an interview on Military Radio yesterday that even if Biden had christened “Renewing the Deal” with Iran, it will be a better deal than the one that preceded it, as we have broad agreement that there are big gaps (in the 2015 deal) regarding the interests of the free world. “Hauser said the Middle East has changed since Biden left office in 2016, and that” Iran is more dangerous in the region, and with more precise and lethal technologies, this is not just the Israel’s problem, but the whole world’s problem. “In view of the comparison between Trump and Biden, Hauser stressed that the most important thing for Israel is to restrain Iran and prevent it from acquiring a nuclear weapon, despite the fact that the two candidates have different forms of deal with Iran.
Between Hanegbi’s warning and Hauser’s optimism, it seems clear that there is an official Israeli enthusiasm for concealing anxiety, which can be seen in the general Israeli approach expressed in various ways and methods in recent weeks, including the relative silence on the commentary. It is clear that uncertainty surrounds the Israeli assessment of what lies ahead, not as it relates to the Palestinian arena or the path of normalization with the Arab rulers, as Trump has established equations that need not be changed or skipped if Biden wins the presidency, but in the approach to be imposed on the winner, after the proven Iranian steadfastness. That “maximum pressure” could not push Iran back.
