The Middle East is still a region full of conflicts, and the war in the Middle East is one of the hot topics of global concern. Due to disputes over territorial issues, the Middle East wars broke out after the return of land by Western countries, which was the longest war except World War II, and was experienced five times. Israel was at a disadvantage in the early stages of the war, but with the assistance of the United States, the withdrawal of Arab British commanders, and its own strength, Israel's strength gradually increased, and finally ended the war with the withdrawal of troops and rose to prominence in the Middle East. However, the root cause of the war in the Middle East lies in the division of national territorial interests.
At that time, the territory of Palestine was divided in two, and the proportion of Arab territory was smaller than that of Israel, which caused Arab discontent and anger. The establishment of the State of Israel has deprived the Arabs of their native rights and interests, causing great harm and humiliation. The day after Israel's founding, the Arab League attacked, and Israel suffered several blows because its institutions were not functioning well and there was not much time to prepare. However, Israel was not defeated. Instead, it was supported by Jews from all over the world, as well as from the United States, which allowed it to grow rapidly, eventually forming the Wehrmacht.
Israel's success, in addition to being linked to the wisdom and national support of the Jews passed down from generation to generation, has benefited from Iran's bystanders. As one of the largest countries in the Middle East, Iran is rich in natural resources, especially oil, which is intimidating to other countries. However, during the Middle East war, Iran declared that it was dealing with its own internal affairs and turned a blind eye to the Middle East war. Why is that?Iran occupies the first place in the Middle East when there is turmoil in the Middle East, and the war in the Middle East is very wide-ranging, and Iran will certainly be affected, but it has chosen to remain on the sidelines.
The United Nations is the main body worldwide for resolving issues related to war and national interests. By the time the United Nations proposed the resolution on the establishment of Israel, Israel's statehood had already been recognized and supported by the United States and Truman**. The United States has a high voice in the United Nations, and Iran is relatively weak and needs the support of the United States, so Iran also "recognizes" Israel's status. Although Iran and Arabia share the same religion, the relationship between the two is not good because of sectarian relations.
Despite the constant contradictions between Israel and the Arabs, Iran cannot participate in them, because Iran needs to solve multiple problems within its own country. Iran has long relied on the United States, believing that the United States can solve its own problems, but in fact it has not taken any mediation measures, which makes the Iranian population very dissatisfied. The Islamic Revolution of 1978 overthrew the Shah and Iran ceased to be allied with the United States, which led to a rupture in Iranian-Israeli relations. Despite this, Iran remains reluctant to face external threats because it needs time to regain its strength.
In addition, Israel's growing power, the Arab attitude of despising the enemy provides an opportunity for Israel, and the United States has been behind it, making Israel the most powerful military force in the Middle East, and its strength is constantly increasing, and it is wise for Iran not to have a hard-nosed choice. The military capabilities of the Arabs did not improve, so in the end the Arabs chose to retain their strength. At present, the situation in the Middle East is temporarily stable, and Israel continues to rise.
It is undeniable that Israel's military strength is the strongest in the Middle East and it is a representative of hard power, however, Israel has failed to win the recognition of other countries in the Middle East in terms of soft power. Even though Israel is located in the center of the Arab countries, it has always been excluded from the periphery of the Arab countries, like an "alien population". Israel's armed forces have forced other Arab countries to make concessions, but have not been able to win the respect of other countries.
