Retired Israeli General Yitzhak Brik warned in an article published in the Jewish daily Haaretz that Israel will collapse within a year if the war of attrition against Hamas and the Lebanese Hezbollah continues.
Brik, nicknamed the “Prophet of Wrath” in Israel because he predicted an attack by thousands of Palestinian militants on the settlements surrounding the Gaza Strip similar to the Aqsa Flood Battle added that Defense Minister Yoav Galant is beginning to realize that if a regional war breaks out due to the failure to reach a Gaza agreement, Israel will be in danger.
“I assume Galant now realizes that the war has lost its purpose, we are drowning in the Gaza quagmire and losing our soldiers there without any chance of achieving the main goal of the war, which is to topple Hamas,” said.
He stressed all paths at the political and military levels are leading Israel to the abyss whilst stressing that replacing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his extremist partners could save Israel from an existential spiral that could soon reach the point of no return.
With American support, Israel has been waging a devastating war on Gaza since7 October, leaving more than 133,000 dead and wounded, most of them children and women, and more than 10,000 missing, amid massive destruction and deadly famine.
In disregard of the international community, Israel continues the war, ignoring the UN Security Council resolution to stop it immediately, and the International Court of Justice’s orders to take measures to prevent acts of genocide and improve the catastrophic humanitarian situation in Gaza according to JO.24.
