Some Thoughts on the Medium-Term Effects of Israel-Palestinian Conflict

About two years ago, I wrote a post about the likely fate of three nation states which are vassals of the American Empire after the ongoing decline of the later. One of those three nations was Israel. In it, I pointed out that the supposedly “special” relationship between USA and Israel has only existed since the 1980s. Prior to that the relationship between the two has ranged from lukewarm during 1950s-1960s to somewhat good in the 1970s. In that post, I also made the point that since Israel had put all its proverbial eggs in the USA basket, they had no real option other than attempt to expand trade with other countries- but that these countries would provide basically zero support for the military and strategic interests of Israel. My analysis concluded with what can be best summarized as “It will be interesting to see if Israel will still be around in its current form a couple of decades from now, because the changes necessary to make that possible will be quite drastic and highly unpleasant.”
