How Israel-Iran became arch enemies after being friends for 30 years, will America make an agreement like Camp David?

When the endless enmity against Israel began

It was 1982, when Israel invaded Lebanon and ousted the Palestine Liberation Organization. The upcoming creation of the security zone in South Lebanon temporarily benefited Israeli allies and the civilian Israeli population in Lebanon. The result was the emergence of a domestic Lebanese rather than Palestinian resistance movement within South Lebanon, where Hezbollah rose to power.

When America provided weapons to Iran

Antipathy toward Iran in Israel did not begin until the 1990s, when Saddam Hussein’s Iraq was considered a greater threat. It is also said that the Israeli government was a mediator in the Iran Contra Program. Under this program, weapons were provided to Iran in the war against Iraq between 1980 and 1988.

If Iran starts making nuclear weapons, the situation will become worse.

Relations between the two countries deteriorated further when it was revealed that Iran had started the work of acquiring nuclear weapons. Israel does not at any cost want any country in the Middle East to have nuclear weapons. Since then, the relations between the two countries further soured, which has now turned into staunch enmity.

Iran bought enmity with Israel to help Saudi Arabia

When Iran began to establish its dominance in the region, it also had to face the second major regional power, Saudi Arabia. Shia-dominated Iran created a different strategy to take on Sunni-dominated Saudi Arabia and further fueled hostility against Israel. The objective was that Iran could become the leader of Muslims in the Arab world. Iran then created the ‘Axis of Resistance’ network in the form of Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthi, which extends to Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and Yemen.

Shadow war begins between Israel and Iran

According to Dr. Dhananjay Tripathi, the war between Israel and Iran is called ‘Shadow War’, because both the countries do not directly accept the attacks. The Islamic Jihadi group once linked to Iran had blown up the Israeli embassy in Argentina. Shortly before that, Hezbollah leader Abbas al-Musawi was assassinated. Mossad was accused for this. Israel is also considered responsible for the recent assassination of pro-Iranian Hamas leader Ismail Haniya in Tehran and the assassination of Hezbollah chief commander Nasrallah.

What is America’s stance on Iranian attacks?

Regarding Iran’s missile attacks, US President Joe Biden said that America fully supports Israel. Biden said that on his/her instructions, the US military actively helped protect Israel during this attack. he/she said that this attack has proved ‘failed’. At the same time, US Vice President Kamala Harris said that the way America helped Israel in shooting down Iranian missiles is absolutely right.

Will America not be able to make an agreement like Camp David?

Dr. Dhananjay Tripathi says that the Camp David Agreement was signed between Israel and Egypt on September 17, 1978, in which US President Jimmy Carter mediated. The Camp David Accords were signed by the then Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin. With this agreement, peace was established between the two countries. Because of these agreements, Sadat and Begin jointly received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1978. However, such an agreement seems difficult to be possible between Israel and Iran right now, because the issues between the two countries are complex and there is concern in the world community about Iran’s nuclear program.

Will there ever be an end to the enmity between Israel and Iran?

According to Dr. Dhananjay Tripathi, the improvement in Iran’s relations with the West may lead Iran to reconsider its hostility towards Israel. However, for this to happen, conditions must arise for a more moderate leadership to re-emerge in Iran. Such a situation may arise after the death of the current supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Progress on the Palestine issue may also influence Iran to reconsider its position. For this, China, which is helping in the restoration of relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia, can also make some tacit agreements between Israel and Iran. However, it is too early to say anything right now.
