The ongoing turmoil in the Middle East is rooted in Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s pursuit of the 'Greater Israel' project and efforts to establish Israel as a dominant regional force, Jewish journalist Martin Gak, based in Germany, said.
Speaking to Anadolu Agency (AA), Gak criticized Israel's aggressive actions in the region as illegitimate and deeply destabilizing.
‘Nothing to do with self-defense’
Commenting on Israel’s recent attacks, Gak stated: "This has absolutely nothing to do with self-defense. I wouldn't even call this a preemptive attack. This is just preemptive destruction and extermination.
"So obviously, if you completely devastate the entire region, at least in principle, there would be no instruments for response or defense.”
