“Issues Not Settled At All”

Dr. Raphael BenLevi
Dr. Raphael BenLevi

Dr. Raphael BenLevi expresses skepticism regarding the Iran peace deal, arguing that Vice President Vance’s trip to Geneva for a signing ceremony provides unnecessary legitimacy to Iranian officials.

He emphasizes that the current memorandum is only a preliminary phase focused on energy flow and fund releases, while many critical long-term issues remain unsettled and unclear.

The Trump-Iran Gambit: Strategic Maneuver or Surrender?

Ruth Wasserman Lande
Ruth Wasserman Lande

Ruth Wasserman Lande analyzes the potential diplomatic opening between the Trump administration and Iran, questioning whether it represents a weak surrender or a sophisticated tactical maneuver aimed at managing domestic political timing and stabilizing oil prices.

She expresses concern that the move feels like a “punch in the stomach” to Israel and other regional allies, yet suggests that Trump’s fundamental desire to be a “winner” may mean a deeper strategy is at play.

Prof. Kobi Michael clarifies that the upcoming MOU is only the beginning of a 60-day negotiation process and expresses skepticism regarding a successful final agreement due to deep gaps on nuclear and regional issues.

He further asserts that Israel must continue military action against Hezbollah to ensure its security, even if it causes tension with the United States administration’s diplomatic efforts.

”Lebanon’s inclusion in the agreement is a gift to Iran”

Meir Ben Shabbat
Meir Ben Shabbat

Meir Ben Shabbat: Firstly this is an MOU, which is essentially a temporary agreement for an interim period during which there will be in-depth discussions, and not a final agreement. The issues, especially the nuclear issue, have not yet been agreed on, and therefore it is not possible to compare it to the Obama agreement – we can only do so after the final agreement.

But even without waiting for the final agreement, what has already been agreed upon is enough to substantiate the concerns in Jerusalem,” Ben-Shabbat adds. “Firstly, an agreement with Iran – and this is true of any agreement – grants legitimacy to the extremist regime and gives it the most important thing for it: survival, hope and resources for reconstruction.

A Reflection of General Weakness

Dr. Raphael BenLevi
Dr. Raphael BenLevi

Dr. Rafael BenLevi argues that the proposed deal reflects American weakness and fails to address Israel’s primary security concerns, such as Iran’s nuclear program and missile capabilities.

He also warns that the involvement of hostile regional moderators like Qatar and Pakistan skews negotiations against Israeli interests, while emphasizing Israel’s determination to take independent action against grave national security threats.

Palestinian Authority to hold presidential elections in 2027, Mahmoud Abbas says

Prof. Kobi Michael
Prof. Kobi Michael

Prof. Kobi Michael: Abbas’s announcement was essentially the 90-year-old’s plan to use the “same maneuvers to run away from any significant reforms” and to maintain the “last drops of legitimacy.”

Abbas’s move might be more convincing for Western clients who are in favor of the Palestinians and support them under any conditions.

Beyond the Two-State Solution: A New Regional Architecture

Prof. Kobi Michael
Prof. Kobi Michael

Prof. Kobi Michael argues that a two-state solution is currently unviable due to deep internal Palestinian divisions and their refusal to recognize Israel as a Jewish nation-state, suggesting instead a “new regional architecture” that addresses the Iranian threat.

He further contends that international recognition of a Palestinian state is counterproductive because it discourages bilateral negotiations and ignores the necessity of eliminating Hamas and reforming the Palestinian Authority.

Hezbollah’s spider’s web is unraveling

Dr. Yossi Mansharof
Dr. Yossi Mansharof

Dr. Yossi Mansharof: Hezbollah’s image as Lebanon’s protector collapsed long ago. But now its image as the protector of the Shiites is also beginning to crumble. Hezbollah is at a low point in terms of its legitimacy, both inside the country and within the Shiite community. This phenomenon bothers Hezbollah so much that it openly declares it is willing to go to civil war to change its weakening status in Lebanon. Unfortunately, Lebanon’s historical memory means the government and the public will do everything to avoid that. After all, Hezbollah is still the most armed and powerful body in the country.

Strikes highlight ‘asymmetry’ in power dynamics between U.S. and Israel

Prof. Kobi Michael
Prof. Kobi Michael

Prof. Kobi Michael: An Israeli response should have been expected. That Iran launched its strikes in retaliation for Israel’s actions in Lebanon was something that Israel will not tolerate.

Despite Trump’s comments, it was important to look to the president’s actions, rather than his words, adding that even if Trump is not very happy about Israel’s response, he was likely to tolerate it.
