What are the most important differences between Netanyahu and Tel Aviv’s military-security authorities? – Mehr News agency RCO News Agency
Mehr News Agency, International Group: The discovery of the bodies of 6 Zionist prisoners caused the start of a new round of public demonstrations in the occupied territories for Netanyahu’s withdrawal from the condition that Israeli forces remain in the border strip with Egypt; In particular, it has become the center of Philadelphia. Based on the published information from the Doha-Cairo negotiations, it seems that the parties to the conflict have reached a general agreement on almost all clauses and are negotiating only on how to implement them. However, Netanyahu’s insistence on not withdrawing the occupying army forces from the mentioned border line has caused the Hamas movement to reject any agreement with the occupying forces and to demand pressure from the international community on the Zionist regime to unconditionally accept Security Council Resolution 2735.
This disputed issue has not only raised the voice of Hamas or mediator actors, but the heads of security services and Israeli military commanders also believe that Tel Aviv does not have much time to bargain and in order to return the prisoners alive, they must accept the ceasefire agreement quickly.
The most important difference between Netanyahu and the members of the security cabinet of the occupying regime is the remaining of the Israeli army forces in the Netsarim corridor and the Philadelphia axis. The Prime Minister of Israel believes that the mentioned areas are the vital highways of Hamas, and if they are not under the control of the army, all the achievements of Israel in recent months will be lost.
In the recent meeting of the cabinet, he asked its members to vote for a plan that considers the presence of Israeli army forces in the Philadelphia axis in its various scenarios. During this voting, Gallant voted “negative” and Ben Goyer voted “abstention”. While Netanyahu insists on the condition that David Barne and Ronan Bar, the heads of the Mossad and Shin Bet, believe that the continuation of this situation can seriously endanger the lives of the Zionist prisoners.
Another point of difference between the Zionist leaders can be seen as the difference between Netanyahu and Gallant over the number of released prisoners. The Prime Minister of Israel believes that if a large number of Palestinian prisoners, especially its political leaders and military commanders, are released, Israel’s internal security will face a serious threat. On the other hand, Israel’s Minister of War believes that Tel Aviv has no choice but to accept this issue in order to reach an agreement. The scope of this difference can be seen in the idea of deporting Palestinian prisoners. The Zionist rightists want to deport the released prisoners to European countries, Turkey and Qatar, but Gallant and security officials believe that this can lead to international problems for Israel in the near future.
The difference in the understanding of priorities can be seen as the main reason for the difference between Netanyahu, Gallant, Barne and Bar. As the prime minister, Netanyahu pays attention to issues such as maintaining the achievements in the field and not collapsing the cabinet, and the military commanders and security officers, under the influence of international pressure, demand more flexibility in negotiations to reach an agreement that provides the interests of all actors.
Netanyahu has clearly stated among his ministers that if he has to choose between prisoners and maintaining the Philadelphia corridor, he will definitely choose the latter. Perhaps for this reason, the head of Mossad told her in a meeting with the mother of one of the prisoners that there is little chance that an agreement on the exchange of prisoners will be reached in the Netanyahu government. After the bodies of 6 Zionist prisoners were found, more than 350,000 people came to the streets of occupied Palestine on the evening of September 1st to voice their opposition to Netanyahu and demand a quick agreement with Hamas.
The experience of the last 10 months has shown that when Netanyahu is under severe pressure from America or public opinion, he commits “suicide” and tries to disrupt the focus of his opponents and critics by creating a crisis outside occupied Palestine. The illegal attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus and the assassination of Martyr Haniyeh happened exactly when Netanyahu was under the most intense pressure to accept a ceasefire and stop fighting in Gaza.
On this basis, it is necessary for the members of the resistance network to understand Netanyahu’s political behavior in “be fully prepared” and not allow the Zionists to have a new adventure. In other words, the leader of the Likud party may take a big step towards the escalation of regional tension and the marginalization of prisoner exchange negotiations by issuing warrants for the assassination of prominent resistance leaders or attacks on Hamas centers in Lebanon or other areas.

The non-return of the remaining 103 captives in the Gaza Strip can be the final seal on the political life of all Israeli political, security and military officials. Right now, some families of prisoners who lost their loved ones may blame the regime leaders for the death of these people and take steps to physically remove Netanyahu. The general strike from universities to Ben-Gurin Airport shows the depth of Israeli society’s anger against Netanyahu and their efforts to convince the “dictator” to unconditionally accept a three-phase ceasefire. Analysts believe that with public opinion turning against the prime minister and the Israeli negotiating team, it is possible that the Biden administration will use new tools to persuade or pressure Tel Aviv.
The most important obstacle in this process can be considered Netanyahu’s fear of the “collapse of the cabinet” and the departure of the leader of the “National Power” party, Ben Guer, from the government. Although Netanyahu has a good chance in the possible elections in the recent poll of “Ma’ariv” newspaper, there are still many “buts” and “ifs” for him and his allies to win again. In such a situation, it seems that Netanyahu is looking for some kind of guarantee from the US and public opinion that if he accepts the ceasefire and the possible fall of the cabinet, he will not only enter the process of the fact-finding committee and be arrested due to a corruption case, but also the chance of winning the election. And he still holds the post of prime minister.
