A large group of former officials of Israeli intelligence, army, and law enforcement agencies warned today, Tuesday, US President Joe Biden of haste to return to reach a new nuclear agreement with Iran.

The group that comprises 2000 Israeli officials has signed a petition to Biden to reveal that hasting in negotiating with Iran exposes Israel and its Arab allies to direct danger.

"Washington Free Beacon" news website affirmed that the Israeli Forum for Defense and Security phrased that petition which means that Israel and its Arab allies are united to oppose the Biden admiration's efforts to join the nuclear agreement of 2015.

The Israeli officials considered that the nuclear agreement is defective and poses a direct threat to regional stability.

The Israeli leaders said that they are upset that the Biden administration and a few European countries are promoting a return to the Iran nuclear deal while ignoring the concerns of countries closest to Iran, the most vulnerable to Iran, and the most familiar with Iran.

They added that the Iranian system seeks to destroy Israel and topple the Arab governments that made peace with Israel.

The Israeli officials went on to say that preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear capabilities is necessary to curb a disaster in the Middle East region.

They consider that Biden's decision to grant Iran an artery of life threatens to undermine the regional stability after the historic agreements of normalization ties between Israel, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and others in the Arab world.

The Israelis defined a number of principles that the Biden administration and the European powers should embrace in the time of negotiating with Iran to sign a new nuclear agreement.

They proposed not to return to the original formula of the nuclear agreement signed in 2015.

They claimed that this formula has failed to eliminate Iran's capabilities related to enrichment, granted Iran a permit for its undeclared nuclear activities, and failed to stipulate the inspection of Iranian military facilities.
