Retired Israeli Major-General Yitzhak Brik said that fatigue is evident among the ranks of Israeli soldiers and many of them no longer have the desire to fight, as stated in the Hebrew media.
Brik stressed that Israeli soldiers have lost confidence in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the political leadership and the Chief of Staff, noting that Netanyahu and Herzi Halevi are leading a war without a strategic vision and should resign.
Brik added that Halevi does not adhere to his stands in order to please the officials at the top and maintain his rank, noting that the Jewish people throughout the generations have not had a leader who gave up 101 hostages twice.
Brik stressed Netanyahu gave up the hostages out of a narrow self-interest to preserve his government and position.
Brik pointed out Netanyahu gave up the hostages twice, the first time when he allowed them to be kidnapped and the second time by his wrongful decision not to release them according to Jo24.
