Israeli Strategy after the Russo-Georgian War

September 9, 2008 | 1907 GMT

Austin, TX, Sept. 8, 2008 - We think you will be interested in this week’s geopolitical intelligence report so want to bring it to your attention. Israel’s strategy after the conflict between Russia and Georgia is complex and you should read the entire report, however, 3 key points are:

  • Israel’s involvement in Georgia and its withdrawal were driven by broad geopolitical considerations.
  • Israel is much more secure than it or its enemies concede.
  • The greatest threat to Israel is the re-emergence of Russia as a great power.
