US, ‘Israel’ Hold Secret Anti-Iran Meeting
Local Editor
The Zionist entity and the United States secretly signed a joint strategic action plan to cooperate in their efforts to deal with what they referred to as Iran's nuclear ‘threat', The Times of ‘Israel' reported.
On December 12, a delegation led by National Security Advisor Meir Ben Shabat met at the White House with his US counterpart, H. R. McMaster where a document was signed followed by rounds of intensive talks, according to ‘Israeli' Channel 10.
The meeting, part of ongoing discussions between the US and the Zionist entity defining common strategic goals, culminated in the creation a number of joint teams focused on countering what they view as elements of the country's ‘threats.'
"‘Israel' and the United States see eye-to-eye on the trends and processes in the region, especially Iran, and reached agreements on the strategy and policy required in relation to them," the senior ‘Israeli' official said according to Channel 10.
"Both we and the Americans are very pleased with these conclusions and the commitment to dealing with both the challenges and opportunities in the region," the official continued.
The deal follows on from US President Donald Trump's October 13 speech where he unveiled a more aggressive strategy to check Iran's growing might announcing that he would not recertify the Iranian nuclear deal.
For his part, US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson in an opinion piece for the New York Times last week also reiterated his country's intentions to up the ante against Iran stating that, "the flawed nuclear deal is no longer the focal point of our policy toward Iran...we are now confronting the totality of Iranian threats."
The US and the Zionist perspective on the Middle East has been increasingly converging since Trump assumed the presidency last year. In his National Security Strategy launched December 18, he declared that "‘Israel' is not the cause of the region's problems" instead denounced Iran as a root cause of instability.
Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was also a fierce opponent of the Iran deal and has been united with Trump in his decertification efforts.
Trump's decision to recognize occupied al-Quds as ‘Israel's' capital has also been championed by the Netanyahu administration whilst simultaneously receiving a barrage of international criticism from around the world.
