Briefings

A 2026 analysis suggests Israel's expansionist wars have instead unified the Middle East against them, creating a 'new Middle East' rather than a redrawn one. The evidence indicates regional cooperation emerged as a direct response to Israeli military actions, though the specific mechanisms and long-term implications remain unclear.

Key points

• Israel's military expansion in the region has triggered regional cooperation rather than division.
• The 'new Middle East' is defined by this collective resistance to Israeli expansion rather than territorial redrawing.

Context

This finding challenges the expectation that Israeli expansion will fracture the region, suggesting instead that Israel's actions have unified its neighbors against it.
