Bouvard on Iran's Regional Capitulation and Israel

Anyway, if the deal is about money for uranium "deblending" it doesn't seem like Israel and Lebanon have anything to do with it. There's no reason why Israel shouldn't keep eliminating Hezbollah terrorists, especially if the latter keep firing into Israel.

That would just confirm and seal Iran's capitulation. And Iran has capitulated, right? I assume the US is not recognizing Iran's right to maintain its assets in other countries. I suppose we'll know for sure when the MOU comes out, but if the US is committed to protecting Iran's

proxies, something's a bit off. That's the peril of the deal--you end up defending the interests of the partner of the deal. And if the goal is to intensify internal factional struggles, wouldn't closing off access to Lebanon faciliate that?

I don't think the anti-Israel firsters will get much traction from "Netanyahu is messing up the deal" but they will obviously try, since that's their only real interest in the deal--as a cudgel against the "Israel-firsters."
