Despite the halt of talks in Doha, Israeli military operations continue under the guise of hostage recovery.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1073\" data-end=\"1333\">Yedioth Ahronoth reports senior army officers believe the new humanitarian aid strategy could \u201cshake Hamas\u201d and shift the balance. Yet many former officials and commentators strongly dispute this narrative, labeling the war a politically motivated deception.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1335\" data-end=\"1777\">Former Prime Minister Ehud Barak, in a Haaretz op-ed, urges Netanyahu to choose between extremist ministers like Ben Gvir and Smotrich, and international legitimacy. He condemns the war as a \u201cpolitical charade,\u201d warning it won\u2019t achieve its goals but will worsen Israel\u2019s global isolation, ignite anti-Semitism, and endanger hostages. He advocates for a post-Hamas transitional authority supported by Arab states and backed by Gulf funding.<\/p>\n<article class=\"text-token-text-primary w-full\" dir=\"auto\" data-testid=\"conversation-turn-20\" data-scroll-anchor=\"true\">\n<div class=\"text-base my-auto mx-auto py-5 [--thread-content-margin:--spacing(4)] @[37rem]:[--thread-content-margin:--spacing(6)] @[72rem]:[--thread-content-margin:--spacing(16)] px-(--thread-content-margin)\">\n<div class=\"[--thread-content-max-width:32rem] @[34rem]:[--thread-content-max-width:40rem] @[64rem]:[--thread-content-max-width:48rem] mx-auto flex max-w-(--thread-content-max-width) flex-1 text-base gap-4 md:gap-5 lg:gap-6 group\/turn-messages focus-visible:outline-hidden\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<div class=\"group\/conversation-turn relative flex w-full min-w-0 flex-col agent-turn\">\n<div class=\"relative flex-col gap-1 md:gap-3\">\n<div class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col grow\">\n<div class=\"min-h-8 text-message relative flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 text-start break-words whitespace-normal [.text-message+&amp;]:mt-5\" dir=\"auto\" data-message-author-role=\"assistant\" data-message-id=\"670ef0f5-f810-4ab2-a799-cb558b9ccd11\" data-message-model-slug=\"gpt-4o\">\n<div class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden first:pt-[3px]\">\n<div class=\"markdown prose dark:prose-invert w-full break-words light\">\n<h3 data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"102\"><strong data-start=\"19\" data-end=\"102\" data-is-last-node=\"\">Critics Warn Netanyahu\u2019s Gaza War Risks Iran Escalation and Democratic Collapse<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"flex justify-start\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"absolute\">\n<div class=\"flex items-center justify-center\">Barak\u2019s criticism is echoed by other former leaders and generals, including Yair Golan and Moshe Ya\u2019alon, who accuse Netanyahu of dragging the country toward authoritarianism and chaos. Analysts like Ben Caspit and Yossi Verter describe the prime minister\u2019s actions as a threat to democracy, likening his tactics to \u201cRussian roulette\u201d and exposing the hostage families to further despair.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17787\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17787\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-17787 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/566666-2.jpg\" alt=\"Critics Warn Netanyahu\u2019s Gaza War Risks Iran Escalation and Democratic Collapse\" width=\"1000\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/566666-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/566666-2-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/566666-2-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-17787\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Israeli war Crimes in Gaza<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex items-center justify-center\">Meanwhile, military analysts suggest the war on Gaza may be tied to potential Israeli plans for a strike on Iran. Haaretz\u2019s Amos Harel argues that while the government claims strategic aims, it is killing more civilians than ever before. Yedioth Ahronoth\u2019s Nahum Barnea warns that the total destruction of Gaza is enabling a messianic vision within the government. He and others fear the war could be exchanged for a deal allowing a military operation in Iran.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex items-center justify-center\">In conclusion, critics say Netanyahu\u2019s endgame is not victory but survival. The war in Gaza, escalating regional instability, and internal power struggles reflect a failed leadership pushing Israel toward diplomatic disaster, isolation, and possible confrontation with Iran\u2014all while the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza worsens daily.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Watan-Israeli sources say the destruction and forced displacement in Rafah will soon be replicated in Khan Younis, as part of Prime Minister Netanyahu\u2019s plan to occupy 70% of Gaza, confining Palestinians to the remaining 30%.
