It's all part of the plan. He only has to look to Russia for tips

“Greater Israel” refers to an Israeli vision, pushed by ultra-nationalists, of conquering Gaza, the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem, as well as the Sinai Peninsula, Syria’s Golan Heights, and Jordan. Some versions of “Greater Israel” also refer to Lebanon, other parts of Syria and Egypt, and even parts of Iraq and Saudi Arabia."
