Quick War Deal or Treaty Won’t Do
By James Quillian,Economist, Political Analyst, Natural Law
A quick deal or treaty only kicks the can down the road. Every Iranian and every Arab government—friend or foe—knows this. The U.S. will not support Israel through an extended ground war, and the moment Washington begins to back away, Israel’s enemies will move in. A new front will open. The source of the insurgence may be hard to identify at first, but the outcome won’t be. Israel will be overrun
.
There is simply too much anti‑Israel sentiment in the region for this to resolve any other way. The IDF is already showing signs of internal fracture—reserve refusals, manpower shortages, morale collapse, political interference, and the ongoing draft revolt among the ultra‑Orthodox. Add in the government infighting, the economic strain, and the growing distrust between the military and the political class, and the picture is obvious: Israel is weakening from the inside at the exact moment its enemies are strengthening on the outside.
The Most Likely End of the War. The U.S. has bigger problems than Israel’s survival, and when that becomes undeniable, Israel will be on its own. The Arab world will exploit the chaos. They won’t need coordination. They won’t need a formal alliance. They will only need opportunity.
And opportunity is coming.
