Iran-Israel, for now a game of deterrence
EUGENIO GARCIA GASCON
Common sense says that the Iranian attack against Israel in the early hours of April 14 will not escalate, but logic does not always work in the Middle East. Departing from logic has been common within the Israeli leadership for many decades and has been publicly stated by senior officials of successive governments since the establishment of the state in 1948, some of whom developed the doctrine of disproportionate response, so It remains an open question whether Israel will behave one way or another.
