In response, Defense Minister Benny Ganz, who had also accepted the terms of a bad deal, put the Israel Defense Forces on high alert. both defensive and offensive operations.
It is a Lebanese admission that the disputed waters are in fact, at least in part, sovereign Israeli maritime territory that Lapid and Ganz are about to offer them in exchange for a small percentage of royalties if, or when, Lebanon drills from long-duration equipment.
Israel has informed the United States, acting as liaison negotiators on a deal, and which many consider to favor Lebanon over Israel, which opposes Lebanese adjustments in what many in the country consider to be already a deal.
U. S. officials and others at the most sensible level of the Israeli echelon seem to fail to perceive or forget who the decision-makers in Lebanon are. They basically come with the head of the Lebanese parliament and the devoted Iranian representative of Hezbollah, who are Lebanese twins, linked at the hip through their Shiite connections.
To say that Hezbollah will not benefit from the long-term income from herbal fuel is illusory. I repeat, they are linked by the waist to Amal, and Amal and Hezbollah what is happening in Lebanon.
This agreement will be a water-for-peace agreement and Israel’s Karish platform will be even more exposed to Hezbollah’s aggression in the sea waters freely presented to Lebanon much closer to the Israeli platform than before. And to say that, at the end of the terms of this agreement, Ganz said that “this agreement harms Iran’s interests. “
