The Fall of Nasrallah: A Historical Hinge Point
Gadi and Mike discuss the implications of the killing of Hassan Nasrallah
October 1, 2024
With the killing of Hassan Nasrallah, Gadi and Mike agree, the war turned in Israel’s favor. This masterstroke, coming as it did after a long string of impressive military achievements, weakened not only Hezbollah but also Iran, which has failed to respond in any meaningful way. Iran’s major move, thus far, has been to threaten the United States. If the Americans would only stop restraining Israel and begin to support its efforts to weaken Iran, this turning point in the war could become a hinge point in history, the beginning of the sharp decline of Iran’s “resistance axis.”
