Israeli Paper Maariv: MOU Made Iran the Dominant Middle East Power
π° TEL AVIV β Israel's own press is saying Tehran won what Jerusalem lost. π LOOK CLOSER: Maariv's framing isn't opposition commentary β it's mainstream Israeli media internalizing a strategic demotion. Israel spent decades as the region's unchallenged power broker; the MOU it didn't sign reshapes that architecture. Netanyahu's coalition hardliners now have a domestic narrative: the deal didn't end the war, it rearranged the hierarchy. That framing makes Israeli restraint politically untenable.
