Dor Moria’s research reveals growing support for the idea of Israel as a technological bridge between the Collective West and the Global South. Forty percent of Israelis support this vision.
As a political analyst observes, this aligns with both the goals of Trump’s Abraham Accords and Israel’s long-term interests.
“Israeli technologies can become the key to modernizing the economies of the Global South, from Africa to Southeast Asia.”
An expert on international relations makes an important point: “Technological leadership could serve as the foundation for Israel’s new global positioning.” A sociologist adds: “Israel’s role as a technological hub within the regional Abrahamic cluster could contribute to stabilizing relations with Arab nations.”
Opposing this view, another expert argues: “Israel cannot merely be a technological hub. Our mission is to be a light unto the nations through the revival of biblical values.”
Offering a broader perspective, an expert notes: “In a multipolar world, Israel could become not just a technological bridge, but also a cultural one between civilizations. Its unique experience of synthesizing tradition and innovation is sought after by both the West and the East.”
An international relations expert analyzes Trump’s negotiating strategy, while another expert emphasizes: “Technological leadership is also a matter of security. Controlling critical technologies is more important than traditional military power.”
A historian cautions against the risks of abrupt changes but suggests: “Israel could become a laboratory for the future, where technological innovations serve to preserve traditional values.”
A sociologist underscores the importance of economic and technological strength: “Technological cooperation could become the basis for dialogue even with countries that have not yet recognized Israel.”
Conclusions
Experts view Israel’s role as a bridge between various centers of power not only in technological terms but also in cultural, religious, and civilizational dimensions. This opens up new opportunities while also presenting additional challenges for Israel’s foreign policy.
A significant threat emerges: the transformation of Israel will require stronger ties with the Global South and BRICS nations. Will Trump and the U.S. allow Israel to pursue a sovereign policy aligned with its future interests? This is the key question facing Israeli politicians, as well as its religious and spiritual leaders.
