If Israel is to reverse its shift toward international isolation, and help build a stable regional security environment, it must change its approach. Paranoia and antagonism must give way to sober politics, with Israeli leaders discussing potential strategic compensation with the US, working with other powers to address Iran’s support for Hamas and Hezbollah, and considering a credible revival of peace negotiations with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.
如果以色列想要扭转国际孤立化的趋势，为构建稳定的地区安全环境贡献力量，就必须改变方针。偏执和对抗必须让位给清醒政治，以色列领导人应该讨论与美国的潜在战略报酬，与其他大国合作解决伊朗支持哈马斯和真主党的问题，并考虑可信地重启与巴勒斯坦总统阿巴斯的和平谈判。
