Israeli Society Divided
According to experts, there's a divide in Israeli society between Netanyahu and Gantz. Gantz believes that continuing the war without freeing prisoners is a losing process, while Netanyahu wants to keep going to satisfy the families of those killed in the occupation army.
Israeli Media's Role
The Israeli media used to support Netanyahu, but after the killing of three prisoners in Gaza, they changed their tune. However, they still don't give Hamas a chance to share their point of view.
Israeli Leadership Crisis
The political leadership in Israel is facing a major crisis. The people at home don't trust their leaders' statements anymore, especially with Gaza standing strong and supporting resistance.
Possible Solution
Experts predict that an expanded exchange deal could be a way to end the current war. However, it's uncertain if the right-wing Netanyahu government would accept it. The United States is pushing for this deal to reduce losses and help President Joe Biden recover from his involvement in the war on Gaza.
Israeli Confusion
Another expert believes that Israel is losing and getting more involved in the conflict. The puffy rhetoric from Israeli leaders shows weakness and covers up their military failures.
Hamas' Strength
Hamas is seen as the one determining the pace of the war. They have achieved operational strength and rolling victories, while Israel hasn't had any real achievements.
Israeli Leadership's Anxiety
The Israeli leaders' statements express anxiety, losses, and a lack of harmony within the government. Without a political solution, there won't be an end to the war.
In conclusion, there's growing concern among the United States and other world powers due to the major escalation in the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandab Strait. Hamas has emerged as a new player in the world, alongside Washington's allies and other major powers like Moscow, Beijing, and Tehran
