If I had just a few minutes to speak with Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett before his initial meeting with US President Joe Biden on Thursday, I would tell him this moment might be the most critical in the existence of the State of Israel since its founding.
If Biden follows the premier's advice, the United States might be able to overcome the international opprobrium that has resulted from the precipitous and chaotic Afghanistan withdrawal. I would let him know that the following actions would be a surefire way to regain American respectability among the community of nations. And if the prime minister plays his cards right – albeit with maximal sensitivity, tact and diplomacy – the president just might appreciate and act on his advice.
Of course, I would start by telling Bennett that according to the International Atomic Energy Administration (IAEA), Iran is already producing highly enriched uranium at 60 percent – way beyond the level that was outlined in the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), better known as the 2015 Iranian nuclear deal. In September 2020, the IAEA said Iran had already exceeded 10 times their limit, and the IAEA has been unable to access many of the sites, including the major site of Natanz, in order to do its job.
