Nadav Argaman, ex-head of the Israeli General Security Service (Shabak), called for a immediate halt to the fighting in the Gaza Strip and an end to the war. He said Israel is not qualified for long wars.
Argaman added according to Israel’s Channel 12 the war should have ended a long time ago, stressing “the lives of those in captivity are more important than anything, and they must be returned despite the painful price we will pay in the deal.”
Argaman criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying what he is doing now, as per continuing the wara on Gaza, is for the benefit of the continuation of his rule and the preservation of his coalition government and not for the security of Israel as highlighted in Al Jazeera.
He added that Netanyahu’s insistence on remaining in the Philadelphi Corridor aims only to preserve his government. He explained there is no connection between the existing weapons in the Gaza Strip and the Philadelphi Corridor, and that it is Netanyahu who invented this.
The former Shabak chief stressed the majority of the weapons in Gaza are produced by Hamas itself, and that it has made these weapons through adapting so-called “dual-use materials” that enter through the Kerem Shalom crossing as fertilizers for agriculture.

“The Philadelphi axis is not important to the axis of evil, but to the axis of Ben-Gvir and Smotrich,” he maintained.
“Our priority should be to return the kidnapped soldiers, ceasefire in Gaza and shift our weight to the north and the West Bank,” Argaman said, adding, “We will deal with the risks that will arise as a result of such a deal later.”
He explained Israel must establish a regional and international alliance with the Americans to confront Iran, noting the only way to do so is to stop the war in the Gaza Strip according to Jo24.
