Israeli activist Amiad Cohen said at the JNS International Policy Summit in Jerusalem that Israel and Egypt will be at war within 15 years. Cohen argued that the Muslim Brotherhood — which he described as "Sunni jihad" — will eventually take over Egypt and US states such as Texas and Florida, and that an Israeli prime minister would need to address the challenge starting now.
Amiad Cohen, a prominent Israeli activist, delivered a stark prediction Sunday at the JNS International Policy Summit in Jerusalem. Speaking on a panel about US-Israel relations, Cohen stated that Israel and Egypt will be at war within the next 15 years, a forecast he anchored in his assessment that the Muslim Brotherhood — which he termed "Sunni jihad" — will eventually seize power in Egypt and also gain influence in US states including Texas and Florida. Cohen urged that Israeli leadership must begin addressing the threat "starting from today," arguing that an eventual confrontation is inevitable. The remarks add to a growing public conversation among Israeli figures about long-term strategic threats beyond the immediate Iranian and Gaza fronts, as reflected in recent statements by lawmakers and analysts reviewed by The Zioneer. However, Cohen's prediction is a personal opinion and not an official assessment by any government or security agency.
