Netanyahu Promised Alliances with the Strong. The Gulf Sees Israel Differently Now - and Iran Is Pleased
"בריתות כורתים עם חזקים", הבטיח נתניהו. במפרץ רואים את ישראל אחרת - ואיראן מרוצה

An analysis arguing that Netanyahu's promise to forge alliances with the strong has backfired as Gulf states now view Israel differently following the Iran conflict, with Iran appearing satisfied at Israel's growing diplomatic isolation in the Arab world.

גם היום הבטיח בנימין נתניהו כי "יכרתו איתך הסכמי שלום, רק אם אתה חזק". אבל גורמים במפרץ אמרו לרויטרס שההיגיון מאחורי הסכמי אברהם נשחק, והתפיסה הגוברת היא שישראל הופכת לנטל בכל הסדר אזורי. באיראן מרוצים אחרי המלחמה: "לא רק שרדנו. הפכנו לשחקנית משפיעה יותר"Related dispatches
