Why Israel now supports an Iran nuclear deal

Why Israel Now Supports an Iran Nuclear Deal | GZERO World

Israel fiercely opposed the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, but now is not so against it as it was before.

Why?

Ali Vaez, Iran project director at the International Crisis Group, says the Israelis have realized that a no-deal scenario doesn't serve the country's interest — and that the Trump administration's 2018 withdrawal was a mistake because it brought Iran closer to getting the bomb.

And why does Israel get to have nukes but not Iran?

"Well, international relations is about double standards, right?"
