Assessment: Trump may 'take revenge' on Iran for the election loss

Political sources in Israel and the US assess that the US midterm election results, which weakened Trump, may change policy toward Iran. One source says Trump sees Iran as partly responsible for the congressional loss due to rising fuel prices, and will be determined to remove the nuclear threat.

Political sources in Israel and the US assess that the US midterm election results, which weakened President Trump's standing, may change policy toward Iran. One source says Trump will be determined to remove the nuclear threat, partly out of a sense that Iran is responsible for the congressional loss due to rising fuel prices. The article warns that the period until the end of Trump's term is dramatic, and that the strategic relationship between Israel and the US is in danger due to an anti-Semitic Qatari campaign, according to the article, which operated in universities and schools. It further claims that the new Congress is expected to hinder war moves against Iran, and therefore Israel must act with military and political determination, form a broad government, and invest in public diplomacy.
