Israel Wants Ability to Attack Anyone at Any Time: Israeli Analyst Ori Goldberg



As we continue our coverage of the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, we speak with Israeli analyst Ori Goldberg in Tel Aviv. He says "there is a broad embrace of this attack" among Israelis, bringing together the country's liberal, right-wing, religious and settler groups.

"They all seem to agree, broadly and deeply, that this war is inevitable," says Goldberg, who adds that nobody has articulated a clear strategic vision for the war. "Israel, over the past two-and-a-half years, has become exceedingly greedy. It doesn't want to commit itself to anything. What Israel is fighting for is the right to be able to go off on such attacks whenever it wants, wherever it wants, for as long as it wants."

It's either a part of the law-abiding, peaceful community of nations or, if it believes it is a law unto itself, it can revel in its splendid isolation as a pariah state like North Korea.

But who am I kidding, right?
