TEL AVIV / ISLAMABAD — Israel has openly expressed satisfaction over the failure of peace negotiations between Iran and the United States held in Islamabad, with the Israeli Prime Minister taking a sharp jab at Tehran in a nationally televised address.
“Iran once threatened to wipe us off the map,” the Israeli Premier said with undisguised triumph. “Now Iran itself is fighting for its own survival.”
The Israeli leader went further, claiming that Israeli military operations had effectively “crushed” Iran’s nuclear and ballistic missile programs, significantly degrading Tehran’s strategic capabilities and offensive reach.
Israeli officials described the breakdown of the Islamabad talks as “good news for the Middle East,” arguing that any agreement with Iran would have rewarded a regime they accuse of sponsoring terrorism and destabilizing the region.
Senior Israeli defense officials added that the failure of diplomacy validated their longstanding position that military pressure, not negotiation, was the only language Tehran understood.
However, regional analysts warn that Israel’s celebratory tone risks further inflaming tensions at an already volatile moment. Critics argue that the collapse of dialogue serves no one’s long-term interests and increases the risk of a broader regional conflict.
The international community has urged restraint, with several European nations calling for renewed diplomatic efforts before the situation spirals out of control.
