The Middle East has never been short of strongmen but it has outdone itself this time. It has delivered the most dangerous man we have ever encountered and whom we can no longer tolerate. No one from his own country or beyond can compete with him. He has amassed records: no one has killed more Palestinians than him. He has created an endless stream of corpses, widows and orphans. His military arsenal is impressive: the best US jets, rockets that never miss their target, and a modern killing machine that uses artificial intelligence to produce the most horrific forms of starvation.
