Israel’s strategy of ‘permanent war’: A race against time? | The Bottom Line

Israel is in a race against time to “lock in its domination” across the Middle East, argues former Israeli negotiator Daniel Levy. Levy, president of the US/Middle East Project, tells host Steve Clemons that Israel’s strategy of “permanent war” allows for only two types of countries in the region: either dependent, or “too collapsed, failed and fragile to pose any challenge”.
Israel can try to block a US-Iran deal by advocating for “just one more major military operation” against Iran, and “heating things up” with constant attacks on Lebanese and Palestinians despite ceasefires on paper, Levy says. #Israel #palestine #lebanon #gaza #benjaminnetanyahu #daniellevy #middleeast #unitedstates #hezbollah #iran #usirantalks #aljazeeraenglish #aljazeera
