".....Israel has only one ally, the USA. Israel's actions must therefore be seen with the motivations of its political leader Netanyahu, and within the constraints of its one-ally military reality. Netanyahu is trying to engineer the USA into being trapped to join Israel in a war against its neighbours for Netanyahu's political survival....."
This is a bit yes AND no (pardon the pun). Israel is a shadow member of NATO and they have an office at NATO HQ in Brussels. When Iran made their symbolic retaliation, you may recall that Britain and some other countries also joined the US in a drill to shoot down some of those missiles and drones heading to Israel. And its an open secret in the UK that that country's RAF has been conducting reconnaissance for the Israelis to help them with their mass murder in Gaza, and also sending them weapons, from the RAF base in Cyprus.
I think if a wider war breaks out then the NATO members get roped in too. But then again, they have all refused to call this mass murder and break ties with Israel and sanction it. So I guess they will send their young men and women to die defending mass murderers.
By the way great link there you have to the talk by Nikolai Petro. He is someone who should be getting interviewed on every major media outlet every single day of this needless war in Ukraine. But instead he was getting interviewed by a really annoying guy who didn't know how to just ask questions and let the expert talk. Very insightful guy that Petro.
He is the most insightful commentator on the war I've found.
There are other videos out there, if you wish to hunt. He's an academic and not terribly motivated by media. His interviews are essentially to promote his books. He's trying to give us a hint. ;)
