The Future of Israel in The Middle East

3 min readJan 2, 2024

In today’s article, I will be discussing the future of Israel should the United States of America continue down the path of disinterest in global affairs due to the ending of the global war on terror in 2021, with America’s withdrawal from Afghanistan decreasing their interest in the Middle East.

Furthermore, the American public and the American presidential office have become increasingly isolationist and withdrawn from global politics since 1992, when Bill Clinton defeated George H Bush to win the presidency of the United States.

I’ll also be discussing the movers and shakers in the Middle East: the Israelis, the Republic of Turkey, Iran, Egypt, Jordan and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and what potentially they will be doing if the United States leaves that region permanently.

The Future of Israel in The Middle East

Israel’s Problems

Israel is the world’s only Jewish state and has a major domestic problem caused by its social security support network. Israel subsidises a section of its ultraorthodox population to study the Torah and focus on reproducing children.

This by itself is not a negative policy where it becomes negative for the whole of the society of Israel when its people had been incentivised not to work or join the Israeli defence Force.
