Beyond the war, \u201cdangerous challenges\u201d have also emerged within the Zionist regime in various fields, and more than ever, failure in the war and beyond threatens the existence of the regime. Still, the severe media censorship governing the Occupied Territories prevents its reflection to a great extent.<\/p>\n
Differences between the military, security, and political sectors are among the challenges in this field to such an extent that parallel to the prolongation of the war in Gaza, the intensity of internal differences in the decision-making system and Netanyahu\u2019s cabinet will also increase. As such, today, all the military and operational calculations of the Zionist regime in Gaza have been faced with \u201cserious doubts.\u201d The only thing that the world has witnessed so far is the blind bombings of the Zionist regime and the killing of civilians, and on the other hand, the Resistance of the Palestinians and the heavy losses of the Zionists.<\/p>\n
In this regard, the daily \u201cYedioth Ahronoth\u201d not long ago published a note in which it wrote a few weeks after the war, Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel, is not still awake, and his cabinet is now being managed without a clear and specified strategy\u2019 and in a part of the note it has been emphasized that \u2018the management of Netanyahu\u2019s cabinet is bad. There is almost no leadership in it!\u2019<\/p>\n
The difference between the small cabinet (cabinet of war) and the large cabinet (Netanyahu\u2019s government) has different dimensions. The two sides disagree on everything related to the war, including military plans, assessments, maps, decisions, how to conduct the war, its outlook, and what will happen in the future. In such a way that the \u201cdistrust crisis\u201d between Netanyahu and the army, which already existed, has intensified.<\/p>\n
For example, \u201cHerzi Halevi,\u201d the Chief of General Staff of the Zionist Army, has assessed the situation in the Gaza Strip and has presented plans for the continuation of attacks and ground operations in southern Gaza, but Netanyahu has opposed the development of ground operations in southern Gaza at the present juncture.<\/p>\n
The Hebrew channel \u201cKAN\u201d has also recently revealed that the chiefs of the army general staff, the intelligence agency \u201cMossad\u201d and the internal security organization known as \u201cShabak\u201d left the limited security and political cabinet meeting before it ended.<\/p>\n
In addition to the differences between the heads of the military and security agencies and members of the cabinet, the members of this cabinet are also in disagreement with each other, so that in the meeting of the cabinet a few days ago, Gadi Eisenkot, the former chief of staff of the Israeli army, demanded information about the state of the army (in the Gaza war). Still, the Minister of Internal Security, Ben Guer, jumped in the middle of his words, and then the meeting went into a convulsion!<\/p>\n
The next issue is the severe internal disputes, until recent days, over the ceasefire and the exchange of prisoners; Benny Gantz and Gadi Eisenkot, two members of the \u201cmain\u201d camp fraction, believed that \u201cIsrael\u201d is obliged to rescue the prisoners who can be rescued immediately. On the other hand, Gallant and Holloway and a number of army and Shabak commanders claimed that a ceasefire is currently prohibited and military pressure on Hamas should be intensified.<\/p>\n
The noteworthy point is that Netanyahu avoids taking a definite position on those differences for various reasons, including political considerations. Netanyahu, who is known as \u201cresponsible for the war\u201d and according to domestic, regional, and international public opinion and even some Western partners, is caught in a \u201cdifficult predicament\u201d and is cautious with any plan that he sees as a threat to his position and political future and sometimes opposes it. Unaware that for Netanyahu, there is no escape from the fact that he will suffer \u201cpolitical death\u201d soon.<\/p>\n
Definitely, with the end of the Gaza war, we will witness the emergence of new challenges at the two levels of \u201cstructural\u201d and \u201cbrokerage\u201d in the Zionist regime, of which Netanyahu will be the biggest victim.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, the tension and internal differences in the Zionist regime have caused the calculations of the army, which is the \u201cmain pillar\u201d of the Zionist regime, to be messed up. This situation, besides causing severe \u201cconfusion\u201d within the military and security forces of the Zionist regime, psychologically, will gradually cause a sharp drop and loss of motivation and spirit of war among the Zionist forces.<\/p>\n
Currently, the most important elements within the Zionist regime who are interested in the continuation of the war and its attrition are Netanyahu and his affiliated extremist elements inside and outside the cabinet. Because, according to them, especially Netanyahu, the prolonged war in Gaza is currently making him immune to political protests and his survival in power. But the matter is not that simple. Indeed, the continuation of the war in Gaza, which is now becoming one of the \u201clongest\u201d wars of Israel in the past 75 years, will cause the emergence of problems and \u201cdifficult crises\u201d within the Israeli regime.<\/p>\n
Neither the army nor the public opinion, nor the economic infrastructure, etc., the Israeli regime cannot tolerate a long-term war. At present, more than 75 percent of the residents of the Occupied Territories believe that Netanyahu is responsible for the failure to \u201cprotect the settlements around Gaza\u201d as well as Israeli citizens, and he should be held accountable for it.<\/p>\n
This is despite the fact that the resistance of the Resistance fighters so far, on the one hand, the spread of threats against Israel\u2019s interests in the region, which we can see in the recent movements of Ansarollah, on the other hand, and finally the internal differences in the Zionist regime, which are increasing every day, will practically make it challenging to continue the war in Gaza.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Field and political estimates show that elements in the Zionist regime\u2019s cabinet are seeking a \u201cwar of attrition\u201d in Gaza. Because the end of this war will be the \u201cstarting point\u201d of the escalation of problems in the Occupied Territories, especially against the cabinet and Benjamin Netanyahu.
