Netanyahu heads to Washington to lobby amid 'very good' US talks with Iran

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is traveling to Washington to meet with US President Donald Trump, reportedly to lobby against a potential new US-Iran deal. This trip follows recent direct talks between the US and Iran in Oman, which Trump described as "very good." Netanyahu, who previously influenced Trump to exit the original JCPOA nuclear deal, is concerned about a new agreement and aims to convince the US to include Iran's ballistic missile program in any negotiations. Experts suggest this demand is a "poison pill" intended to scuttle any potential deal, as Iran is unlikely to limit its primary deterrent against Israel.
