ALEX SELSKY: “THIS WAR AGAINST RADICAL ISLAM IS NOT AN ISRAELI WAR”
#News #breakingnews
Middle East Forum’s Alex Selsky says Americans need to understand the broader stakes of the fight against terrorism and radical Islam.
“This is not Israeli war. This is American war, and this is a Western war.”
Selsky argues that many Americans see conflicts involving Iran, Hezbollah and Islamist groups as Israeli wars that pull the U.S. in, but says he sees it “in a way, the opposite.”
“Israel is paying the price in many, many cases by being the front liner and the closest ally of America.”
Selsky’s broader argument is that the threat extends far beyond Israel. But is he right that Americans should view this as a threat to the West as a whole?
