Many claim that Israel lacks a clear plan for “the day after” the war. But Bar-Ilan’s BESA Centre explains that Israel is not playing a short-term game. Beyond its declared war goals, Israel is aiming to create a new security reality in the region by weakening Iran and its proxies.
This broader goal stems from the understanding that to Israel, this war is existential, and the removal of significant threats from Israel’s borders is non-negotiable.
