Israel's Fateful Existential Wars

By Raphael Israeli

0 - Default Title
Description
Major wars and threats of war have endangered Israel since her inception in 1948, though these fears have been interspersed with the occasional temporary relaxation of tensions. So far, the Founding War in 1948-49 and the rout of Arabs in 1967 have constituted the greatest victorious breakthroughs in Israel's existence. But under the appearance of peaceful intentions, the terrorist Hamas among the Palestinians, with the active support of Iran, Qatar, and others, broke the tenuous peaceful trend Israel has seen, when Hamas launched its cowardly onslaught of murder on sleepy Israeli villages, on that day of infamy of October 7, 2023, massacring 1300 inhabitants and taking into captivity 250 more as hostages.The October 7 attack shook the world and still shuffles the political cards of the Middle East conflict. President Trump agreed with PM Netanyahu and Arab and Muslim leaders for a peace plan on September 29, 2025, yet to be implemented.
