    IOF intel chief says an agreement with Iran is better than failed talks

The head of the Israeli military intelligence, Aharon Haliva, announced to the high-level security cabinet that a nuclear agreement with Iran is better for "Israel" than failed talks. 

The Israeli Walla website quoted the head as saying that returning to the agreement would buy "Israel" time to allow it to better prepare for a scenario of escalation with Iran without pressure.

Haliva said that returning to the nuclear agreement will increase certainty about the limitations on Iran's nuclear program, which would not be the case if there was no agreement.

The head of the intel's statement came after David Barnea, the Mossad chief who previously did not express support for the agreement, told ministers there was still time to influence the US regarding nuclear agreement conditions with Iran.

Barnea was reported saying that “It’s not lost and it’s worth investing time and effort in a dialogue with the Americans about the contents of the agreement."

According to two ministers who participated in the cabinet session, the general atmosphere suggested that if an agreement was achieved with Iran during the Vienna talks, Israeli officials should avoid speaking out against the Biden administration. 

"Israel" is concerned

Yair Lapid, the Israeli foreign minister, was in Europe in November to discuss with British and French leaders the resumption of the Vienna Talks to revive the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, signed between Iran and the P5+1 in 2015.

The Israeli official met with British PM Boris Johnson and Foreign Secretary Liz Truss in London, as well as French President Emmanuel Macron in Paris.

Top Israeli officials have already voiced their disapproval of the deal, with Israeli PM Naftali Bennett previously saying that "Tel Aviv" was highly concerned about the nuclear talks and major world powers lifting sanctions on Iran in return for imposing restrictions on its nuclear program.

The occupation's PM voiced his concern over the "flow of billions to Iran in the face of insufficient nuclear restrictions."

On Saturday, various Israeli security figures voiced their concerns over the talks and Iran's return to the JCPOA altogether.
