On Israel’s northern front, in Lebanon, Hezbollah has been considerably weakened as a fighting force by the IDF’s offensive against it, which began in earnest last September with the “exploding pagers” attack. The current ceasefire with Hezbollah may not hold. On Saturday, three rockets were fired from Lebanon towards Metula in northern Israel and the IDF and the IDF responded immediately with its own attacks. If the truce breaks, the IDF indicates it is ready for that too.
Unimpeded Israeli air strikes into Syria already target supply lines to Hezbollah, and there is much to gain as the hiatus of the post-Assad Syria works itself out. In Yemen, the Houthis are a strategic irrelevance to Israel but their occasional missile attacks and strikes against world shipping in the Red Sea serve to point up the main objective of Netanyahu’s wider war aims: to sever Iran’s links with all of Israel’s local enemies and, if possible, bring about regime change in Tehran

He might as well. Gaza is basically destroyed, the West Bank subservient, Lebanon willing to work towards peace, literally all of Hezbollah has PTSD from pager beeps, Syria has flipped to a slightly less anti-Israel and more pro West government (very slightly), and Iran’s entire resistance during the fall of its own alliance is to squirt a few missiles at Israel then shake its fist (and doing nothing else). Even Egypts foreign prime minister stated that a [Palestinian faction will not have a role in Gaza](https://x.com/AlArabiya_Brk/status/1903802753173839892) while Hamas is being kicked out. Oh, and an unapologetically pro Israel president is in charge of the US.
I’m having a hard time thinking of any nation state that had its fortunes flip so rapidly in a single year. Maybe like, France in late 1944?

The “New Middle East” = ethnic cleansing and genocide. The language used in this article is sickening
