Trump's election signals potential shift in U.S. Middle East policy as Israel expands military objectives

economist.com — November 7, 2024, 03:01 PM UTC

Donald Trump's election as president-elect is expected to change U.S. policy in the Middle East, but the specifics remain unclear. His approach may vary based on the influence of his advisors.

In Israel, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has dismissed his defense minister, asserting control over government decisions. Israel's military objectives in Lebanon are also expanding, aiming for political change and targeting Hizbullah.

Additionally, Israel is maintaining its military options regarding Iran's nuclear program, preparing for potential actions following the U.S. election.
