Gideon Levy: Israel Loves Wars
Writing in Ha’aretz, Levy writes: Israel loves wars. Needs them. Does nothing to prevent them, and sometimes instigates them. Since the 1948 war, all its wars were wars of choice. It’s reasonable to assume that the next war will break out in Gaza. The alibi is already prepared…

Trump’s “Muslim ban”: Israeli strategic plans to “remake the Middle East” from 2001 and before targeted the same countries
With a single exception, all the countries were targeted for attack in 2001, with similar plans in 1996, 1991, 1982, and the 1950s. The fact is that Trump’s action continues policies influenced by people working on behalf of a foreign country, whose goal has been to destabilize and reshape an entire region. The result has been devastating wars, massive refugee movement that is uprooting entire peoples and transforming parts of Europe, desperate terrorism, and now the horror that is ISIS. If this decades-long effort is not halted, it will increasingly devastate the region, our country, and the world…
