Kamala Harris is desperately trying to get a declaration from Netanyahu of “an indefinite truce” that would allow the exchange of the Jewish hostages still in Hamas hands as well as restore the movement of humanitarian aid trucks. Thus, Harris would be a major diplomat and would wash the image of the Democratic Party as Israel’s necessary collaborator in the ethnic cleansing of Gaza and allow him to present himself before voters on the left-wing Democrats as the To win the vote of this segment of the population.
Netanyahu and the trivialization of evil
Netanyahu would have trivialized evil because of the total absence of morality in his actions that leads him to commit crimes against humanity without thinking about their consequences and without discerning the good or bad of their acts. Thus, the asymmetric punishment of the Gazan population and other evil practices would not be considered by Netanyahu from its effects or its final result because the deities have chosen him to «the high mission of eliminating Hamas from the face of the earth and building the Great Israel», a dystopian situation that has led the Jewish civil rights activist and Holocaust survivor, Israel Shakak to affirm «The Nazis made me fear being a Jew and the Israelis make me ashamed of being a Jew».
Netanyahu would be aware of his precarious political and judicial situation, so using the invisible dictatorship of the fear of the Third Holocaust, took advantage of the bloody offensive of Hamas to declare the State of War (defense of Israel’s security) and launch a devastating offensive in the Gaza Strip that would allow him to postpone the trial in which he is accused of bribery, fraud and breach of trust.After the asymmetric punishment inflicted by Israel, all basic infrastructure, Schools, mosques, hospitals and 90 per cent of buildings in Gaza were reportedly destroyed by systematic aerial bombardments resulting in more than 41,000 Palestinian civilian casualties and several thousand more buried among the rubble.
The rebellion of Israeli society
The growing disaffection of Israeli society due to its disastrous management of the crisis with Hamas and its lack of interest in rescuing the Israeli hostages alive, would have triggered the movilizaciones of the families of those kidnapped by Hamas.Thus, following the unfortunate death by the Israeli army of three of the Jewish hostages mistaken for members of Hamas, there would have been an increase in the mobilizations of the families of those kidnapped by Hamas in front of Netanyahu’s residence “personally responsible for his return home alive” and protests have escalated following the rescue of six Israeli hostages and corpses.
In this context, the Forum of Hostage Families representing the relatives of some of the detainees in Gaza stated that ” the death of the six captives is a direct result of Netanyahu’s failure to reach an agreement to stop fighting and bring his loved ones home”.Protests supported by the Israeli opposition have taken place in both Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, and a dozen points across the Israeli state to call for Netanyahu’s resignation and demand a truce with Hamas that would allow the release of the 97 hostages (of which one third would have lost their lives) continuing in Gaza. In this context, the country’s largest trade union organization, Histadrut, has already called for a general strike with the aim of paralysing the Israeli economy as a sign of support for the protest movement demanding a permanent ceasefire, The release of hostages held by Hamas and the entry into Gaza of urgent humanitarian aid in the form of food, fuel and medical supplies.
Has Netanyahu lost the support of the United States?
Following the decision of the International Criminal Court to seek arrest warrants against Netanyahu and Galant accused of «crimes against humanity», Netanyahu is aware that once the asymmetric war against Hamas has ended, he risks an international criminal prosecution. Thus, Joe Biden, in an interview published by Time magazine, admitted that «Netanyahu would be prolonging the war for political reasons and to stay in power at the head of a complex coalition government».
For his part, Kamala Harris desperately tries to get a declaration from Netanyahu of “an indefinite truce” that would allow the exchange of the Jewish hostages still in the hands of Hamas as well as restore the movement of trucks of humanitarian aid. Thus, Harris would be a major diplomat and would wash the image of the Democratic Party as Israel’s necessary collaborator in the ethnic cleansing of Gaza and allow him to present himself before voters on the left-wing Democrats as the To win the vote of this segment of the population.
However, Netanyahu’s political shortsightedness makes him refractory to the dictates of the Biden administration, so that a coup led by former member of the Israeli Emergency Government, Benny Gantz, and the Minister of Defence would not be impossible.This coup would have the blessings of the Biden administration and AIPAC and after ending the invasion of Gaza and the exchange of hostages in the hands of Hamas, would lead to the early calling of new elections with the declared objective of forming a Government of National Unity of Benny Gantz with Yair Lapid and whose primary task will be to reissue the Oslo Accords that make possible the peaceful coexistence of two peoples in two States.While Netanyahu, a nefarious politician who attempted an autocratic coup d’état to subsequently establish a presidential regime, could face criminal prosecution where he will be accused of negligence and crimes against human rights, what could mean a criminal conviction and his definitive exit from the Israeli political scene.
