How this affects you

This divergence in policy between the US and Israel introduces significant geopolitical instability in the Middle East, potentially leading to increased Israeli unilateral action against Iran or its proxies, and undermines the perception of a unified US-Israeli front against regional threats. The deal's potential unravelling could escalate tensions, impacting global oil markets and regional security.
