Netanyahu makes Israel ‘hostage’ to Trump: Analysts warn of US-Iran deal defeat

Israeli political analyst Ben Caspit says Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has led the country into a “serious political defeat” by tying its security to US President Donald Trump’s policies. Caspit and other Israeli analysts argue that a potential US-Iran nuclear deal would be a “political victory” for Tehran. They accuse Netanyahu of making Israel a “hostage” to Trump’s decisions, leaving the country vulnerable if the agreement weakens international pressure on Iran. The analysts warn that without independent Israeli action, the deal could undermine Israel’s regional security.
