Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and other right-wing figures have voiced distrust in Netanyahu’s Gaza strategy, calling for the complete destruction of Hamas rather than partial measures. Lawmakers like Zvi Sukkot and Yitzhak Kroizer argue Netanyahu’s approach risks forcing negotiations instead of total victory.

Hamas Warns ‘NAZI’ Netanyahu of Paying a HEAVY PRICE for RECKLESS ADVENTURE in Gaza

Hamas has issued a stark warning to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, calling his Gaza City occupation plan a “war crime” and “ethnic cleansing.” The group vowed Israel would pay a “heavy price” and accused Netanyahu of sacrificing hostages for political gains. Islamic Jihad labeled the move “genocidal,” while former Shin Bet chief Ami Ayalon called the war immoral and unwinnable.

‘We’re Losing The War’ Ex-Shin Bet Chief  ADMITS Defeat In Gaza | ‘Only Two-State Plan Can Stop…’ [Video]

‘We’re Losing The War’ Ex-Shin Bet Chief ADMITS Defeat In Gaza | ‘Only Two-State Plan Can Stop…’

In a dramatic admission, former Shin Bet chief Ami Ayalon has warned that despite military gains in Gaza, Israel is ultimately losing the war. In a public statement, Ayalon said, "No matter how many battles we win, we will lose if there's no political solution." He stressed that without a vision for peace, particularly a two-state solution, Israel risks destroying its own identity as both a Jewish and democratic state. Calling a Palestinian state "Hamas’s worst nightmare," Ayalon urged Israeli leadership to look beyond short-term military victories and invest in long-term political outcomes. His comments come amid growing criticism from Israeli officials and security experts about the government’s handling of the conflict. Ayalon’s voice adds weight to the urgent global calls for a ceasefire and meaningful diplomacy. His stark words have sent shockwaves through Israeli political circles and reignited the debate over the only viable path to peace. #IsraelGazaWar #AmiAyalon #ShinBet #TwoStateSolution #GazaCrisis #IsraelAtWar #MiddleEastConflict #JewishDemocracy #Hamas #IsraeliPolitics #PeaceNow #GazaWarUpdate #SpyChiefSpeaks #MilitaryVsPolitical #CeasefireNow #IsraelLosingWar #IsraeliMilitary #PalestinianState #ZionistDilemma #WarWithoutEnd ~HT.410~ED.194~

Israel STORMS Home, ARRESTS Al Mayadeen’s Nasser Al-Laham | DESTROYS Studio Set-up In Raid | VIDEO

Nasser Al-Laham, the prominent head of Al Mayadeen TV’s Palestine bureau, has been arrested by Israeli forces following a violent pre-dawn raid on his home. According to reports by Al Mayadeen, Shin Bet officers stormed the house and destroyed belongings while searching for the studio from where Al-Laham appeared on-air. The arrest comes amid increasing crackdowns on pro-resistance media voices in the occupied territories. Al-Laham was transferred to the notorious Ofer Court in the occupied West Bank, where his detention was extended until Thursday. The operation has triggered outrage among journalists, human rights groups, and regional media networks, who condemn the targeting of press freedom. Al Mayadeen, a Beirut-based channel often critical of Israel and aligned with the Resistance Axis, has described the arrest as an attempt to silence Palestinian voices. This development adds further tension to an already volatile West Bank, where media suppression is becoming increasingly common. #NasserAlLaham #AlMayadeen #IsraelRaid #WestBank #ShinBet #PalestinianJournalist #MediaSuppression #PressFreedom #JournalistArrest #OccupiedPalestine #IsraelPalestine #MediaCrackdown #HumanRightsViolation #MiddleEastNews #GazaNews #IsraelOccupation #ResistanceMedia #FreePress #OferCourt #BreakingNews ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.124~
