A Reuters analysis published Wednesday found that Iran will likely remain Israel\u2019s chief adversary, with military force continuing to serve as the country\u2019s preferred tool against its enemies. The report said Israel\u2019s security doctrine is centered on confronting Iran, maintaining buffer zones beyond its borders and keeping military pressure on to deter threats.<\/p>\n

A victory for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu<\/a>, backed by conservative coalition partners, could deepen Israel\u2019s confrontation with Tehran, not bring about appeasement. Even an opposition-led government would likely share the same broad strategic outlook, David said.<\/p>\n

“The Islamic Republic of Iran is a massive concern for the world,” David said. “Tehran does not fear another diplomatic statement. It fears an America and an Israel with the intelligence, military capabilities and political will to act together.”<\/p>\n

David said the U.S.-Israel alliance should not be judged by whether American leaders support the same Israeli candidate.<\/p>\n

“Presidents come and go, prime ministers come and go. America\u2019s and Israel\u2019s enemies do not take election years off,” he said. “America doesn\u2019t need to choose Israel\u2019s prime minister, nor will it, nor can it, nor is it even trying to. America just needs a strong Israeli partner, whoever the Israelis elect.”<\/p>\n

Reuters has cited regional analysts who said Netanyahu\u2019s re-election could allow him to pursue a more aggressive campaign against Iran, while Arab states remain wary of his policies but want Tehran\u2019s influence contained.<\/p>\n

David said Iran\u2019s hostility toward the United States and Israel extends beyond the current conflict.<\/p>\n

“The Islamic Republic of Iran has been waging this ideological war against America and also against Israel and also against democracies around the world since 1979,” he said. “The regime never stopped a war.<\/p>\n

“Americans thought we have had a war and then we didn’t have a war. Then we had one. Then we didn’t. Well, the Islamic Republic of Iran never ended that war. They’ve seen this as an ongoing war since 1979.”<\/p>\n

He also framed U.S. support for Israel as a matter of serving American national security interets.<\/p>\n

“America does not support Israel because Israel is helpless. America partners with Israel because Israel is capable,” David said. “Supporting Israel\u2019s security isn\u2019t charity. It\u2019s American strategic self-interest.”<\/p>\n

President Donald Trump\u2019s endorsement<\/a> of Netanyahu, contrasted with Vice President JD Vance\u2019s decision to stay out of the race, reflects differing political approaches rather than a split over Iran or the U.S.-Israel alliance, according to David.<\/p>\n

“President Trump is endorsing Prime Minister Netanyahu \u2013 Vice President Vance is emphasizing American priorities, but supporting Israel\u2019s security doesn\u2019t require endorsing a particular Israeli politician,” he concluded.<\/p>\n

“Trump is speaking to Israeli voters because that\u2019s what Trump is able to do \u2013 Vance is speaking to American voters,” David said. “Far too many Americans don\u2019t realize both Trump and Vance know that Tehran is listening.”<\/p>\n
