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.

Head of the Higher Galilee Council Giora Zaltz stated, Saturday, Hezbollah’s military operations in the north of Israel are becoming more deadly and powerful and the level of security in these northern regions on the Lebanese border is deteriorating.
Zaltz mocked the government’s handling of the security situation in the north in an interview on the official Israeli channel, Kan, saying the Netanyahu government discovered in recent weeks there is an enemy on the northern border called Hezbollah, and is waiting for its response to the assassination of Commander Foad Shukr in the southern suburb of Beirut.
He pointed out the situation here is deteriorating from bad to worse, as sirens sound daily because of drones and missiles by Hezbollah on this area, adding there are dozens of destroyed homes, thousands of burned dunams, and there are dead and wounded among the soldiers and settlers, and the fact that more than 100,000 settlers who have been evacuated here:
“We are now without any vital services such as health, banks, educational systems, and others,” he stressed.
Losing parts of the north
Zaltz pointed out Israel is losing parts of the north whether it be settlements, paralyzed economy, and paralyzed education, calling for a changing in the rules and working on a clear strategy to return the Israeli settlers back to the Galilee.
An earlier report aired by the Israeli Channel 12 stated the Israeli settlers have no future horizon, are desperate for news that barely reaches them, and they do not know when they will return to their homes as many said.
Psychologically trauma
Israeli newspaper Maariv revealed in the past few days, there has been a significant increase in the number of calls to psychological treatment centers in the northern regions, following the drone attacks and rockets launching from Lebanon on the western Galilee region.
Director of the Social Development Dept Uri Charles Friedland said that there has been a significant increase in the number of recorded calls to psychological treatment centers as the escalation of security incidents continue
Friedland explained the Department “is working on three main pillars: Individual care, community support, and rehabilitating authorities in the field of mental health in emergency situations.”
The Israeli media previously revealed an increase in the number of psychological injuries among settlers, admitting they collapsing psychologically, and that a number of officers and soldiers committed suicide after the events of 7 October, 2023 according to Jo.24.
