The crossroads in Gaza are clear. Israel launched Gideon’s Chariots in May. The offensive was timed in an odd way. Israel’s political leadership cut off humanitarian aid to Gaza in March when the ceasefire fell apart. It was supposed to enter a second phase, which would have meant most of the hostages would be home by now. However, members of the coalition government have opposed a ceasefire and said that it wouldn’t enter the second phase.
Zamir has had to manage a complex multi-front war. He has succeeded on all fronts. The IDF is operating almost daily in Lebanon, Gaza and Syria, as well as striking the Houthis in Yemen. The military also hobbled the Iranian regime in June. However, Zamir has also come up against challenges with Israel’s political leadership, as well as the future of the Israel-Hamas War.
TVNL Comment: What a tragedy. Israel has the most destructive weapons and war technology known to humans, as well as all the funds it needs to wage war against unarmed. untrained enemies who want only to get Israel out of their lives. Israel breaches every law designed to stop evil men from taking what they want without anyone to stop them. The worm is turning, Mr. Netanyahu and Mr. Trump. And when it finally does, you will be so surprised. So, so, surprised.
