Creation of an emergency cabinet; admitting to weakening Netanyahu's cabinet


  Five days after the start of the al-Aqsa Storm operation, Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel's violent regime, has been forced to agree to form an emergency cabinet. The al-Aqsa Hurricane operation which was carried out last Saturday (October 7) by the fighters of the Qassam Brigades, the military branch of the Hamas movement, was a sign of the biggest military and intelligence failure of the Zionist regime in its 75 years of existence. his. The operation has led to the killing of more than 1,300 Zionists and 2,000 wounded, and most of the wounded are reported to be in serious condition, while the whereabouts of many others are unknown. The Zionist regime, which was taken by surprise by the heroic attack, has launched a barbaric and terrorist attack on all sides against the Gaza Strip.

 Undoubtedly, the al-Aqsa storm will have a major political impact on the Palestinian lands occupied by the Israeli occupation. One of the results that happened 5 days after the operation was implemented was the creation of an emergency cabinet. On Wednesday October 11, the spokesperson of the Zionist government announced the creation of an emergency cabinet that will oversee the regime's war against Gaza and which will be chaired by Benny Gantz, the former minister of war of the Zionist regime together with Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister of the regime that. Israel's barbaric violence against innocent Palestinians Among the clauses of the agreement between Benjamin Netanyahu and Benny Gantz for the creation of the emergency council is that no debate will be held about Netanyahu's judicial reform plan in the Knesset (Parliament). until the war is over.

According to the agreement, the emergency cabinet will continue to work until the end of the war. The agreement has been reached in a situation where a big difference has emerged between Netanyahu and his opponents, including Benny Gantz, in the past 11 months, where weekly protests have been held against the judicial reform plan. The agreement to form an emergency cabinet has several points to consider. The first thing is that Benjamin Netanyahu's cabinet is not able to deal with the situation that emerged following the attack of al-Aqsa Hurricane and thus decided to ask for the help of his opponents. In fact, Netanyahu has admitted the weakness of his cabinet and had to weaken the position in the face of the opposition. The second thing is that the creation of an emergency cabinet does not mean the end of the intense political tensions in the occupied territories.

The idea of forming an emergency cabinet was proposed by Yair Lapid, the leader of the opposition in the Knesset, but he himself is not in the cabinet. Lapid wanted to expel far-right political parties from the cabinet, but Benny Gantz, ignored Lapid's request and announced the decision to participate in the emergency cabinet on Wednesday night while attending a joint press conference. with Netanyahu together with Galant, the Minister of War of the hostile regime. The Zionist violence against Palestinian children Another thing is that Gantz's work in the structure of the emergency cabinet has not yet been determined, but the only thing that has been made clear about the matter is the creation of a "war cabinet" with the presence of Netanyahu, Gantz and the Minister of War of the Zionist regime in the council.

Therefore, some analysts believe that the participation of Gantz in the council is only a show step that aims to eliminate the gap and division that exists between the politicians and the top commanders of the Israeli army. The move itself is still a bitter acknowledgment of the seriousness of the military defeat by Hamas. The last point is that the creation of an emergency cabinet does not mean that the probability of breaking up Netanyahu's cabinet after the end of the current war, but that possibility is still high.
