Watan-<\/strong><\/em>Under the headline \u201cIsrael in the Gaza Trap,\u201d the French magazine Le Point stated that more than a year and a half has passed since the October 7 attack, and yet Israel has resolved none of its core dilemmas. On the contrary, the plan approved by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu\u2019s cabinet on May 5 to reassert control over the Gaza Strip portends new disasters.<\/p>\n

The strategy not only threatens to worsen the already dire conditions for Palestinian civilians, but also endangers the lives of hostages\u2014at least 20 of the 59 believed to be held by Hamas are thought to still be alive. Additionally, the plan may deepen societal divisions in Israel and further isolate it on the international stage.<\/p>\n

According to Le Point, ongoing military operations serve only two parties: Hamas, and the extremist wing of Israel\u2019s ruling coalition. During the two-month ceasefire earlier this year, Hamas experienced a significant erosion of its control\u2014even among Palestinians themselves. But the resumption of hostilities, coupled with the slow and staggered hostage releases, is once again bolstering its authority.<\/p>\n

Netanyahu\u2019s Gaza Plan Fuels Annexation Dreams, Avoids Accountability, and Risks National Backlash<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
On the Israeli side, far-right elements hope to exploit the chaos to fulfill long-held ambitions of land annexation and population displacement.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n

As for Netanyahu, who continues to dodge responsibility for the security failure of October 7, appeasing his hardline allies allows him to avoid early elections and delay the outcomes of his ongoing corruption trials, Le Point notes.<\/p>\n

The magazine argues that reoccupying Gaza would drag Israel back into the quagmire of governing an area with over 2.1 million residents, most of whom oppose Israeli rule. That\u2019s precisely why former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon withdrew from Gaza in 2005 and dismantled settlements there. Returning now would be, according to Le Point, \u201ca catastrophe by all measures.\u201d Polls show over 60% of Israelis oppose reoccupying Gaza.<\/p>\n

Netanyahu\u2019s plan envisions confining Gaza\u2019s population to a so-called \u201chumanitarian zone\u201d in the south and encouraging voluntary departure. Food aid, suspended since March 2, would resume only under conditions, and be distributed under military guard. Meanwhile, the Israeli army\u2014having recalled tens of thousands of reservists, many of whom are now refusing deployment\u2014would continue targeting remaining Hamas strongholds.<\/p>\n

Netanyahu\u2019s Illusions of Victory Collapse as Gaza Trap Tightens and U.S. Shifts Strategy<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n

Netanyahu insists that Hamas\u2019 military capacity is nearing its end. But isn\u2019t that the same promise he has made for 18 months? Le Point asks. Unlike his predecessors, Netanyahu has tried to convince Israelis that prosperity is possible without peace\u2014ignoring the fact that occupation and settlement only inflame conflict and drive the country into greater instability.<\/p>\n

While boasting of unconditional support from Donald Trump, Netanyahu has crossed all red lines. But reality suggests that even Trump is stepping back. In recent weeks, the U.S. administration has opened direct channels of communication with Hamas (which in turn agreed to release the last living American-Israeli hostage), negotiated with Iran, and reached a truce with the Houthis that excludes Israel. It has even temporarily dropped its push for Saudi recognition of Israel, according to Le Point.<\/p>\n

The French magazine concludes that the absence of diplomatic cover, a political solution, or a credible plan to free the hostages is pushing Netanyahu\u2019s government deeper into Gaza\u2019s trap with every passing day. And that\u2019s exactly what the late Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar intended. Though the mastermind of the October 7 attack was killed by the Israeli military last year, the trap he set is still gradually closing in on Israel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
