Israel is secretly discussing cooperation with the Democratic Republic of the Congo and other African countries to resettle thousands of Palestinian settlers from Gaza. This is an attempt by Israel to occupy Gaza completely and to expel all Palestinians from the country. On January 4, the Associated Press reported that 12 children were killed on the spot in a surprise Israeli attack on a place declared a safe zone in the city of Khan Younis in southern Gaza. At the same time, Israel has carried out attacks on the Lebanese capital and carried out the beheading of Hamas leaders. These actions demonstrate Israel's readiness to take significant action. Although Israel won its biggest victory since the start of the war, killing Saleh Aluri, Hamas's deputy chairman of the Politburo, it also caused trouble. Since the outbreak of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, Israel has been taking tough actions, but it has failed to achieve satisfactory results other than the large number of civilians**. Tens of billions of dollars in investment led to only 2More than 10,000 Palestinian civilians were killed and wounded and nearly 80,000 were wounded, but they failed to destroy the main forces of Hamas.
Israel was forced to withdraw its troops under enormous attrition. In the face of unfavourable progress in the fighting, Israel has carried out some special air strikes, directly into the Lebanese capital Beirut to carry out decapitation operations. It is reported that Israel fired three missiles at the Hamas office in the southern suburbs of the Lebanese capital, and successfully carried out the decapitation operation, which directly led to the death of Saleh Alururi, deputy chairman of Hamas's Politburo, on the spot. At the same time, two commanders of the Hamas Qassam Brigades, Samir Findi Abu Amer and Azzam al-Aqraa, were also beheaded. This was Israel's greatest victory, but it also brought great consequences. Israel's beheadings have provoked widespread outrage and made Israel's situation even more difficult. Lebanese Prime Minister Mikati condemned Israeli airstrikes on the southern suburbs of Beirut on the evening of 2 January. At present, Lebanon has filed a formal complaint with the United Nations. This beheading operation was a real morale boost for Israel.
Israeli soldiers are under heavy pressure during the fighting in Gaza, and many have called for their return home and are demoralized. Although Israel carried out the beheading operation in the Lebanese capital, the move also carried great risks and was publicly condemned by many countries such as Iran and Turkey. To make matters worse, Israel's beheadings have sparked outrage that could lead to large-scale attacks against Israel. Immediately after the Israeli air strikes, Allah Lebanon fired ** rockets into Israeli territory. Allah said in a statement that night that it had retaliated for Israeli air strikes in the Lebanese capital, attacking the Marj area in northern Israel, the settlement of Manala and Jal Alam. This anger is not confined to Lebanon, but has spread throughout the Arab world, exacerbating Israel's plight. Hamas has issued a stark warning, threatening to speed up operations against Israel and to launch full-scale attacks on Israeli targets. Immediately after the successful Israeli beheading operation, Hamas took a stand.
Hamas declared national mourning for all of Palestine and called on national and revolutionary forces to rally on all fronts, stressing that Israel's beheadings are a challenge to Arab and Islamic countries. It is clear that Hamas's retaliation is about to begin, and Israel will face a complex attack situation. Israeli military spokesman Daniel Hajari acknowledged that Israel faces a more dire and complex situation, while confirming that the Israeli army is in a high state of combat readiness, both defensively and offensively. Attacks are coming from all sides, uncertainty is adding to the pressure on Israel, and the cost of response is rapidly rising. Israel acknowledges that it is currently facing attacks from all directions and must therefore be prepared for any situation. It can be said that Israel is in a state of extreme tension and faces great uncertainty and pressure. This enormous risk has led to a huge investment in Israel and a sharp increase in the cost of coping, further exacerbating Israel's predicament. In this particular situation, Turkey is also directly involved in the situation.
Turkey has been condemning the large number of civilians caused by Israel in Gaza and unequivocally condemning Israel's beheadings in the Lebanese capital. In addition, Turkey has taken action against Israel. Turkish Interior Minister Jelickaya confirmed to the outside world that Turkey carried out raids on the institutions and facilities of Israel's Mossad intelligence agency inside Turkey and arrested at least 34 people involved in the Mossad. Turkey announced that in addition to the arrests of 34 people, they are searching for another 13 suspects. Apparently, Turkey has already begun to take tough actions. Turkey's constant actions against Israel and its gradual shift from condemnation to direct action have put Israel in a more passive position, as Turkey is a military power in NATO. If Turkey takes real action to support the Palestinians, then Israel will face a particularly passive situation. In addition, the United States has begun to publicly condemn Israel, and discontent with Israel has grown.
The United States has previously imposed sanctions on some Israeli personnel, criticizing Israel's deliberate expansion of the conflict that has led to a serious humanitarian catastrophe. Although the United States has to support Israel, the dissatisfaction of the United States with Israel is also deepening because the current conflict has seriously damaged American interests. U.S. spokesman Matthew Miller publicly condemned two Israeli ministers, which is somewhat rare. Matthew Miller has reportedly stated bluntly that the United States opposes recent statements by Israeli ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben-Gvir in support of the resettlement of Palestinians outside Gaza. The United States' public condemnation of the two Israeli ministers also shows that it is very dissatisfied with Israel's overly aggressive practices, especially those that may directly harm the interests of the United States. At the moment, the United States is already inevitably in a difficult situation, which puts the United States in a difficult position. While achieving tactical victories, Israel is becoming more and more strategically passive.
Israel's beheading operation is indeed a tactical victory, but it also lays a huge hidden danger for Israel. At the moment, the most important thing for Israel is to stabilize the situation and pave the way for a sound end to the fighting in Gaza. It is clearly not in Israel's interest to further provoke the countries of the Middle East, thereby inviting more attacks and putting Israel in a passive situation in which it is surrounded by enemies on all sides. In reality, Israel is increasingly isolated and strategically passive.
