Israel is executing the largest military modernization in its history — a $120 billion, 10-year plan to build unmanned fighter squadrons, robotic ground forces, and a military that looks like "Star Wars" within two decades.

But Brig. Gen. Amir Avivi warns that timeline may not hold. Iran's economy is collapsing. Its proxies are weakening. And a kinetic strike on Iranian nuclear and military infrastructure is no longer a question of "if" — but "when."

Avivi's assessment: "Any minute. Any month."

In this wide-ranging briefing:

THE IRAN CLOCK

Why economic collapse and internal unrest are accelerating the timeline for a direct military strike — and why Israel is prepared to act with or without the United States.

THE NEW ALLIANCE THREAT

Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan have signed a defense treaty. Avivi explains why a pact aimed at Iran today could pivot toward Israel and its allies tomorrow.

HAMAS & HEZBOLLAH: STILL REBUILDING

Despite military operations, the ceasefire reality is allowing both groups to reconstitute. Avivi's blunt assessment: "Hamas will rebuild itself."

THE HARD TRUTH ABOUT PEACE

"I cannot state even one country that I can say, no, we can have real peace." Why the motivation to destroy Israel outranks every other state priority in the Middle East.

THE $120 BILLION TRANSFORMATION

Israel's decade-long overhaul: unmanned aircraft carriers, robotic infantry, and a defense budget larger than at any point since the Yom Kippur War.
