Description: Israel
Israel’s war against terrorists from the Palestinian Hamas movement will soon be three months old, and Western politicians continue to insist that Israel has the right to act after the barbaric attack on October 7, 2023, when Palestinian terrorists invaded the territory from Gaza react In the destruction of Israel, 1,200 people died and 240 others were taken into captivity.
But according to the British weekly newspaper The Economist In Germany, voices are increasingly being raised as to whether the richest EU countries are not exaggerating a little when it comes to their support for Israel.
All of this in a situation in which the Germans themselves still remember the Holocaust and, as part of their own coming to terms with the past, especially the Second World War, support the Jewish state compared to their own conscience. Former Chancellor Angela Merkel also behaved towards Israel in this spirit.
However, The Economist recalled that while terrorists brutally killed 1,200 people on Israeli soil, Israel responded just as harshly by killing 22,000 people in Gaza in almost three months. And he injured tens of thousands more. And here the Germans, especially the German Jews, begin to ask themselves some questions.
“The horror of Gaza, where Israeli forces have now killed more than 18 times as many people as Hamas terrorists on October 7, has highlighted the awkwardness of Germany’s one-sided embrace of Israel, but has also put German Jews in a desperate position “Some fear that excessive protectionist measures could themselves provoke anti-Jewish backlash,” wrote The Economist.
In Israel even that according to the Jerusalem Post cooks because of the army.
The Chief of General Staff of the Armed Forces of the State of Israel, Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, has begun appointing a team to investigate the events that led to Israel being surprised by a Hamas invasion and the massacre of 1,200 Israelis on October 7 in the South.
“If nothing changes, former Defense Minister and IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Shaul Mofaz is expected to lead the investigation team. He was joined by former IDF intelligence chief Major General Aharon Zeevi Farkash and former IDF Southern Command commander Sami Turgeman. …Top IDF officials are expected to resign sometime in 2024 over their failure to prevent a Hamas invasion. The IDF investigation could also trigger a state commission of inquiry, something Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has so far tried to delay,” the Jerusalem Post server wrote.
And it is the army’s plan to investigate its own failures that led to the Palestinian terror massacre that has angered some members of Benjamin Netanyahu’s Cabinet.
“The dispute has brought to the surface long-simmering tensions between the military and some members of the far-right coalition over Israel’s policies toward the Palestinians and exposed cracks in the largely unified front that the Cabinet has presented since war broke out three months ago.” ” Napsal server Times of Israel Several ministers in the Netanyahu government shouted at Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi.
According to available reports, Transport Minister Miri Regev confronted Halevi during a meeting about the investigation that included National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and Regional Cooperation Minister David Amsalem. “They wanted to know why the army decided to open an investigation into the ongoing fighting in Gaza,” the Times of Israel reported, adding that, according to these ministers, the army should now focus on defeating terrorists rather than prevailing should weaken the search for the culprits themselves. The ministers shouted at each other so loudly that it could be heard outside the meeting room.
Some of the ministers are said to be unhappy with the fact that General and former minister Shaul Mofaz, who was involved in the withdrawal of Israeli forces from the Gaza Strip in 2005, is to be part of the commission of inquiry. “Did you appoint Mofaz?” ? “You’re crazy,” Regeva is said to have heard.
