The crisis that the Zionist State has plunged in

The media and observers point out that the Zionist regime is facing an unprecedented crisis even as the war started by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu almost nine months ago, aiming at eliminating the Palestinian liberation resistance movement, Hamas, and dehumanizing Gaza, continuing unabated throwing to wind all international appeals and UN resolutions. Despite having lost 37,000 lives and seriously injuring 86,000 in Gaza, neither Hamas nor the Palestinian people are ready to back down. Other than those who were released or killed the Israeli army is unable to free any of the 240 hostages. On the domestic front, massive protests and anti-government demonstrations are gaining strength day by day. In the meantime, the protest against the call to military service among ultra-conservative Jewish sect Yeshiva students, who were previously exempted them from compulsory military service up to the age of 26, has created a serious security threat.

Fury simmering among the ultra-Orthodox Jewish community against the forced military service of 60,000 religious students is troubling the far-right party members propping up Netanyahu administration. The circumstance that led Israel to this crisis is evident from its military strength of 1, 70,000 soldiers and more than 400,000 reserve soldiers. The Zionist forces cannot hold its ground despite the hourly flow of military and financial aid from the world’s largest military power. Their ego melts away in the face of Hamas who have nothing more than a pitchfork and a slingshot compared to American lethal weapons. To add insult to injury, Lebanon's Hezbollah militia, which thrashed the Jewish army in a direct war in 2006, is stationed as ready for war on Israel's northern border. Israeli warplanes hovering over Lebanese airspace do not get orders from Tel Aviv to drop bombs as they do in Gaza. Because they know only too well what it means to attack. Patrons, including the United States, are warning Israel that dragging Hezbollah, which is backed by Iran, into the war could be dangerous. '

The 60,000 Israeli citizens displaced from the Lebanese border in the wake of the war, who are unable to continue in refugee camps or return to their homes, double the headache of the Netanyahu administration. The obstacle for Netanyahu to overcome the worsening crisis is his severe concern about his own future. On the one hand, the extreme right wing in the cabinet threatens to withdraw support if ceasefire is accepted before achieving goals. Not only will he never be able to continue as prime minister, Netanyahu also fears being branded a war criminal. Meanwhile, observers and military experts in Israel warn that the war is never going to be won. "Hamas is an ideology, a party. It is rooted in people's hearts. Anyone who thinks we can eliminate Hamas is wrong," warned Israel Defense Forces spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari. Vetoing all UN Security Council resolutions for ceasefire, Israel’s parent the US has finally put forward a phased ceasefire. Subsequently, Hamas and its mediators Egypt and Qatar agreed to it alongside the UN Security Council passing the formula unopposed in a resolution. The future of Netanyahu and his acolytes is obviously uncertain. There is no guarantee to Israel’s safety either. The question is how many more lives including that of children and women will be lost before that is proven beyond doubt.
