Jeffrey Sachs: The era of the American and Israeli strategy against Iran in the region is over American economist Jeffrey Sachs: Israel seeks hegemony in the region and the US strives to maintain its global dominance. These two goals alone are enough to show that both sides live in a world of illusions. The political authorities in Israel have come to the conclusion that Israel's survival depends on its military superiority over the Arab world and the permanent surrender or destruction of the Palestinian people. This belief is a form of collective madness, but it is a doctrine that has dominated Israel's politics and its leaders have never believed in peace and do not.
