Col. (res.) Dr. Eran Lerman affirms that Israelโs continued success in global affairs will disprove the deluded claim that the Jewish state is isolated in the world. Itโs also the right strategy, he says, and a deliberate and systematic one.
Prof. Joshua Teitelbaum, a senior research associate at the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies who specializes in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf, penned an essay in The Times of Israel which takes American liberals to task for their moaning about Donald Trumpโs victory in the US presidential elections.
In this fascinating and revealing interview, Col. (res.) Dr. Eran Lerman discusses his six-year tenure as deputy for foreign policy and international affairs at the National Security Council in the Israeli Prime Minister's Office.

Dr. Lerman joined the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies in October 2015.
