SUMMARY:Israel 2048: A Blueprint for a Rising Asymmetric Geopolitical Power
DESCRIPTION:The transcript will be available here.  \n  \nWhat does the state of Israel require to survive? In previous decades\, the Israeli national security and defense establishments had assumed that status quo management was all that it took. Post October 7th\, 2023\,  we have come to realize that defensive restraint and geostrategic risk no longer serve Israel’s interests. However\, power projection across the Middle East\, combined with technological primacy\, should be at the core of a new technological golden triangle. Beyond that\, the core mission of the Israeli civilization is to adopt a multidimensional approach as a spiritual anchor of not only Judeo-Christian and the Judeo-Islamic identity\, which involves\, as a first step\, articulating a Jewish civilizational national mission. Alongside this\, Israel requires a national strategy that integrates deterrence\, diplomacy\, technology\, and economic policy with a military doctrine  that adheres to sustained action against emerging military and national security threats. \nA new study aims to jolt Israel’s security and technology establishment into embracing a new post-Oct. 7\, 2023\, business model that will advance the U.S.-Israel strategic partnership in the heart of the Middle East and across the globe. \nThe Henry Jackson Society study titled “Israel 2048: A Blueprint for a Rising Asymmetric Geopolitical Power” jumps into the future\, with a view toward advancing American and Israeli security interests. \nRead more with Fox News here. \nAbout our Speakers: \n Barak M.
