3. Netanyahu: Israel facing diplomatic isolation, must prepare for 'Athens and super-Sparta' economy
https://www.israelhayom.com/2025/09/15/netanyahu-israel-facing-diplomatic-isolation-must-prepare-for-athens-and-super-sparta-economy/
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke Monday at the Accountant General's Conference and issued a significant warning: "Israel is entering diplomatic isolation. We will have to deal with a closed economy. The world is dividing into blocs, and we are not part of any bloc. That makes it easier to isolate us. We also have a technological and scientific advantage that creates dependence on us and gives others an interest in maintaining ties with us."
"We may find ourselves blocked not only in research and development, but also in production itself. Our defense industries could be blocked, and we will have to be Athens and super-Sparta, adapting to an autarkic economy. We have no choice. At least for the coming years, we will have to cope with these attempts at isolation, and we must first develop the ability to manage on our own."

Extracts:
For the Muslim scholars, boycotting and isolating Israel is more important than halting the death and destruction in the Gaza Strip. Their interpretation of Sharia laws and international humanitarian principles suggests that it is fine to sacrifice as many Palestinians as necessary for the sake of murdering Jews and destroying Israel.
Once again, Qatar and Turkey have proven that their top priority is to promote the Muslim Brotherhood and its affiliates as part of the Islamists' Jihad to destroy Israel.
More than 150 prominent Muslim scholars from 50 countries are currently attending a conference in Istanbul, Turkey, to discuss the situation in the Gaza Strip in the aftermath of the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led massacre of Israelis and foreign nationals.
The conference, taking place at the Eyup Sultan Mosque, was organized by the Qatar-based International Union of Muslim Scholars (IUMS), a body of Islamic theologians founded in 2004 by the late Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, an Egyptian scholar known as the spiritual leader of the Muslim Brotherhood organization. Qaradawi was hosted and embraced by Qatar for many years before his death.
... the organization, earlier this year, issued a fatwa (Islamic ruling) in which it called on all Muslims to wage Jihad (holy war) against Israel.
The fatwa stated that "it is obligatory for every capable Muslim in the Islamic world to wage armed jihad against the occupation in Palestine," that Arab and Islamic states must immediately intervene militarily, and that "the Zionist enemy" must be "besieged at land, on sea, and in the air," by closing waterways and airspace in Arab and Islamic states.
