Valin Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 Israel’s Seven Front War May 31, 2024 #israel #middleeast #geopolitics Examine the recent actions, regional ambitions, and strategic implications of Tehran’s aggressive expansion and its threat to Israel with Michael Rubin, Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. Tehran not only dominates four Arabic-speaking countries (Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Yemen), but has reached new levels of aggression in the past half-year, starting with the Oct. 7 atrocity and followed by the bombing of Pakistan, impeding commerce in the Red Sea, and a drone and missile attack on Israel. Khamenei aspires to build a “Ring of Fire” around Israel, mobilizing seven territories working together to bring about Israel’s destruction. How successful is this plan? Does the sum add up to more than the parts? How can Israel most effectively respond? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valin Posted June 15 Author Share Posted June 15 Jun 6, 2024 Examine the recent actions, regional ambitions, and strategic implications of Tehran’s aggressive expansion and its threat to Israel. Part 3 of our 7-part series.

Khamenei aspires to build a “Ring of Fire” around Israel, mobilizing seven territories working together to bring about Israel’s destruction. How successful is this plan? Does the sum add up to more than the parts? How can Israel most effectively respond? Daniel Pipes has led the Middle East Forum since its founding in 1994. He served in five U.S. administrations, received two presidential appointments, and testified before many congressional committees. Pipes is the author of 16 books on the Middle East, Islam, and writes a column for the Washington Times and the Spectator; his work has been translated into 39 languages. Al-Qaeda invited Mr. Pipes to convert and Edward Said called him an “Orientalist.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
