With Assad gone and Iran hobbled, the time is ripe for a stable Middle East

With the recent display of Israeli and American military strength in Iran, there emerges a new opportunity for fostering stability in the Middle East. Yossi Kuperwasser, a retired Israeli brigadier general and current head of the Jerusalem Institute for Strategy and Security, proposes a strategy for regional integration. He suggests starting with security cooperation and gradually advancing to economic, technological, and civil infrastructure development. This incremental approach is seen as key to establishing a stable foundation for the region’s future. The removal of Bashar al-Assad in Syria and the weakening of Iran’s influence are viewed as crucial steps towards achieving this goal.
