So often in geopolitical discussions commentators invoke the specter of escalation and the prospect of climbing the “escalation ladder,” rung by rung, towards ultimate nuclear cataclysm. Unfortunately, we are in the midst of one of the worst global crises in living memory where escalation is being recklessly pursued by Benjamin Netanyahu in particular and the Israel Lobby more generally.

Screencap this: within two to ten years, Israel will ditch the US and realign itself with China. This sounds unlikely based on the past, but the past is already gone. My prediction is based on applying the main principle from George Friedman’s The Next Hundred Years (which I reviewed here): world leaders may appear all powerful to the masses they rule, but in reality their options are highly constrained.
