Major General (res.) Gershon Hacohen, 19 August 2020 (quote) Macgregor's first visit to Israel was in 1999, when he came on his own initiative while serving as director of the Joint Operations Center at Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe (SHAPE). During that visit he established close relations with his Israeli counterparts. Since then he has visited Israel many times, participating in academic conferences and speaking to a variety of Israeli military audiences. He has an excellent grasp of strategic realities in the Middle East, and acute sensitivity to the security needs of Israel alongside the United States. He has toured the country with Israeli security experts, leading to an excellent chapter on the 1973 Yom Kippur War in an academic volume. Macgregor believes that Israel must have defensible borders; that the Golan Heights is vital to Israeli security; and that President Trump's decision to move the US Embassy to Jerusalem was long overdue. He supports direct US military intervention to assist Israel in time of need. He has warned of Iranian and Turkish hegemony and ambitions to take control of the region.
