Sommario/riassunto

This book offers an in depth discussion of the Israeli - Iranian conflict, and its implications for the United States and Arab states. The main topic is Israel's approach to handling Iran and its partners, given Iran's ambitions, including its plan to produce nuclear weapons. The author explains the complexity of the Iranian - Israeli - Arab triangle, while offering suggestions on how the United States can assist Israel in this matter. The volume also contributes a unique point of view on events and military factors. Ehud Eilam is a former private contractor for the Israeli Ministry of Defense, where for several years he conducted research in different branches of the Israeli Defense Forces.
