The Israeli government was not shown the memorandum of understanding drafted to end the war with Iran, an Israeli government official told NBC News on Wednesday, the latest sign of growing tension between the United States and Israel.
Shortly after Donald Trump said he had given a copy of the MOU to Israel, the same source said Israel still hadn’t seen the draft. The source wouldn’t comment on whether or not Israeli diplomats had asked for the text and were denied it.
The Israeli government’s absence in the negotiations leading up to the MOU has become a perilous hindrance for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who faces career-defining elections before the end of October. The deal framework was provided to NBC News by a senior U.S. official later on Wednesday.
Be aware that the change will likely be going from an old genocidal facist to a younger more-genocidal facist.
If we had a comoetent administration we’d know what we do when Israel deploys a nuclear weapon and Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Qatar, and Lebanon all either produce their own or delcaring deploying one locally the deciding factor of their allyship.
As it is, I think the effective plan is “fumble and cave” as Russia and China snap up every proxy they can.
