In an earlier post, I mentioned that just prior to the collapse of American Empire, Israel would take center stage.........
Bolton forewarns Israel on US policy shifts:
"Bolton comes up at this point with some practical advice to Israel to prepare for the uncertain times ahead. He told Israel’s Army Radio, “I think the next few months are an optimal time for Israel to act in its own national security interests.” Put differently, in the interim period from now, Israel should do what it takes to safeguard its interests.
Former US National Security Advisor John Bolton said Israel should act now ahead of US election to strengthen its security interests. The former US National Security Advisor John Bolton is a paradox in some ways — an extreme right winger with working class background, an outlier like Richard...

Here is my view on what may happen within the next 6 months.
Israel must become a full member of NATO prior walking away from the United Nations. Israel will find it continuously difficult to ignore U.N. resolutions against the Jewish State and when push comes to shove, Israel will walk away from the U.N.. The race is on for Israel to complete the creation of “Facts On The Ground” with settlements. Because what the facts are at the moment Israel walks away from the UN, are the facts of international law and where Possession is 9/10ths of the Law.
NATO and Israel have been holding joint military exercises since 2004.
Israel and NATO became “Partners” in the fight against terror on March 07, 2013. The Israel-NATO Brussels protocol obligates NATO to come to the rescue of Israel under the doctrine of collective security, were the security of Israel to be threatened. Prior to this agreement, Israel was operating under the [NATO] Mediterranean Dialogue (Observer status), which was created in 1994.
And one final point .... Israel must also “Change The Facts On The Ground” as per Gaza. At the moment, Israel has no “Land Coast” .... Without the Lands of Gaza, Israel has no rights to gas deposits off the coast and thus complicates further interests within the Mediterranean Sea. (Greece/Cyprus as an example.)

And as it is, everything Israel has done since 1948 is totally legal.... Israel will claim that it must be legal or it would not of been accepted (or remained) as an abiding member in good standing within the United Nations for such a lengthy period of time.
And who is gonna argue? Who has the “International Power” to force implementation of any decisions made by a discarded United Nations?
I believe that “Negotiations” is a stalling tactic and that when push comes to shove, Israel will walk away from the United Nations and walk away and ignore any United Nations resolutions which would be critical of Israel and the Facts On The Ground.
In fact, Israel has made or stated this point many times.
