War Without Clear Objectives
- Avraham Burg argues the war lacks clear objectives and is the product of opportunistic leaders seizing a moment.
- He blames U.S. withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal and rising fundamentalist alliances for deepening conflict.
Conflict Framed As Strategic Not Religious
