If the world does not want to pay a bigger price, they will have to push for a negotiated solution as soon as possible The current conflict between Israel and Palestine has shocked the world. Although the conflict was triggered by the October 7 attack of Hamas, the rationale behind the conflict lies, in fact, in the desperation of Palestinians. For a rather long time, the Palestine issue had been ...
... aspects to this problem, to this crisis. The immediate task is to stop hostilities, to stop any military activity and to take measures to resolve humanitarian problems, which are all over the place. This is an absolutely necessary first step. When the Israeli reaction to the 7th of October massacre became known, we strongly condemn what Hamas did and at the same time we called immediately for measured response in full accordance with international humanitarian law, respecting the international requirements ...
The new world order requires responsibility and action from those who want to secure their place in it The first take-away from the October 2023 violence surrounding the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is that this conflict—regardless of what has been said before—remains at the center of Middle East politics. Moreover, transforming the world order into a “just” form requires great effort and responsibility on the part of regional ...
In principle, wars complement politics, but in Israel wars absolutely remain the norm and politics are the anomalies. The source of the contradictions remains Israel's fundamental and radical alienation from the Arab environment upon which it was imposed. It cannot maintain its security except by ...
... However, recent processes, especially the crisis in the Middle East, may open a new chapter in how most countries around the world perceive the policies of the United States and Europe, as well as make it impossible to return to the previous world order. Israel's confrontational policy does not pose a direct threat to Russia, the United States or China, the main powers of the modern world, and they are not going to cross their swords over what the Middle East region should look like after the events of ...
... desperate reaction to the loss of support for the Ukraine gambit President Biden used a nationally televised address on October 19 to make the case for an escalation of U.S. support for wars to defend “democracy.” He spoke following his return from Israel, where he bolstered Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and met with Israel’s war cabinet to demonstrate U.S. support for Netanyahu’s goal of “exterminating Hamas.” Biden made the case for linking aid to Israel to providing more funds for ...
The cost of a conflict with Russia for the United States will be measured not only and not so much by support for Ukraine, but also by the enormous cost of containing the Russian-Chinese tandem The aggravation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is an indicator of the growing imbalance in the existing system of international relations. This imbalance is characterised by the emergence of new conflicts and resumption of old ones, with large-scale human casualties and risks of further ...
... Bible calls Jerusalem the City of Peace, but no city on earth has seen as many wars as Jerusalem. Throughout its long history, Jerusalem has been attacked 52 times, captured 44 times, besieged 23 times and destroyed twice. The creation of the State of Israel changed the balance of power in the Middle East region, triggering a series of Arab-Israeli wars that increased national concerns and intensified the confrontation between regional powers. In April 2023, shortly before the launch of another Israeli ...
... issue is linked primarily to confronting Iran's rising power. In principle, there is a strategy that has become clear and known, it is based on cultural backgrounds whose main goal is to fragment societies from within (soft wars). As many countries (Israel in particular) cannot accept at all the reality of Iran's presence as a major regional power. Where, despite all the sanctions policies pursued to isolate and marginalize Iran during the past 45 years, Iran was able to build its own strength and ...
... priorities. Shortly after his election, George W. Bush came up with the ambitious initiative of a Greater Middle East which entailed a democratic restructuring of the region; Barack Obama quickly sent a special envoy for the Middle East to mediate between Israel and the Palestinian Authority; and Donald Trump, by contrast, dashed a number of traditional constants in the policies of his predecessors. It took Joe Biden’s administration a long time to realize the place of this troubled region in the U.S....
