Abstract

The article focuses on Israel's enduring hostility toward Iran as rooted not in nuclear fears alone, but in the profound strategic loss caused by Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution. Topics discussed include Israel's pre-revolution alliance with the Shah's Iran, the ideological shift that made Iran a leading anti-Israel force, the rise of the Axis of Resistance, Binyamin Netanyahu's failed ambitions to reshape the region, and the limits of military solutions.
