Israel's approach of continual violence towards Palestinians has resulted in a self-created predicament, exacerbated by regional overreach. Former adviser Daniel Levy suggests that as Arab leaders face growing regional disgust due to perceived war crimes, their political positions are increasingly jeopardized. Historically, Western support for Israel has masked accountability for its actions; however, there is a noticeable shift wherein some Western institutions begin to acknowledge the detrimental consequences of Israel’s policies. This changing landscape may lead to significant political repercussions for Israel and the regional power dynamics.
Daniel Levy states that Israel’s approach to the Palestinians has led it into a predicament where it offers constant violence instead of solutions, creating regional contempt and isolating itself.
Levy notes that the international community, particularly Western governments, has historically supported Israel, but a growing acknowledgment of Israel's actions is starting to emerge, leading to a potential shift in dynamics.
The consequences of Israel's regional overreach have resulted in a bind for Arab leaders, who face increasing pressure from their populations to respond to what is perceived as Israel’s war crimes.
Levy emphasizes that Israel's zero-sum strategy for the Palestinians has not only failed them but has also entangled Israel in a broader conflict that jeopardizes its own security.
