The Attack on Israel

On April 13, 2024, Iran launched an unprovoked attack on Israel with drones and missiles, which Israel, supported by NATO allies, mostly intercepted. The attack was claimed to be retaliation for an alleged Israeli strike in Syria. World opinion on Israel ‘s response suggests economic sanctions over military retaliation, while recognizing the necessity of a strong response to deter further aggression. I advocate for proportional retaliation and a “peace through strength” strategy, alluding to the risks of appearing weak internationally.
