Experts and analysts believe that the growing disagreement between the United States and Israel regarding the war on… Gaza strip It is a dispute over the goals, and not over the war itself, as the Israeli Prime Minister seeks Benjamin Netanyahu To occupy the Gaza Strip while Washington only wants to change its government.
In this regard, military expert Major General Fayez Al-Duwairi said that the United States expressed concerns about the possibility of achieving the goals announced by Netanyahu from the first moment, but it continued and continues to provide military support to him.
Despite the severe decline in the US President’s popularity joe biden Among young Americans and Muslims, and the increasing embarrassment that Washington feels due to its support for this war, it agreed – today, Saturday – to supply the occupation army with advanced “howitzer” ammunition, which means that the dispute is military and not political.
Disagreement over the conduct of the war
The same opinion was held by political analyst Wadih Awawda, who said that there is no principled disagreement between Washington and…Tel Aviv Over this war, the dispute relates to its management.
Awawda believes that the United States felt from day one that what happened on October 7th was a strategic strike that required intervention to protect Israel from its enemies, and from itself as well.
He also believes that “Washington has strategic fears that the war will expand regionally, or that Israel will become involved in a war of attrition, which is something Biden warned about while he was in Tel Aviv.”
Hence, external pressures and internal disputes between politicians and the military “may encourage the families of the prisoners to put more pressure in order to get out of this war with the least losses,” says Awawdeh.
For his part, international politics professor Hassan Ayoub believes that the problem of the United States is the insistence of politicians, Congress, research centers, and the media to continue to support Israel unconditionally, regardless of what threatens American interests because of this support.
Even the voices that talk about the dangers of this war to the United States do not mean American national security in the region, but rather the dangers that threaten the new regional project that Washington wants and whose completion requires stopping this war.
Ignore the main party
Accordingly, the dispute between the Biden administration and Netanyahu does not revolve around the war, but rather about the day after it stops, according to Ayoub, who believes that the main issue is “America’s attempt to find a balance in the relationship with Israel,” because Netanyahu wants to occupy the Gaza Strip and expel a large part of the population. Its residents are transferred to other countries, while Washington wants to end the rule Islamic resistance movement (agitation).
Given Israel’s almost total dependence on the United States in this battle, Washington can put an end to the large-scale military operations in Gaza in order to prevent Netanyahu from implementing his plans, in the opinion of Ayoub, who stressed that Netanyahu’s goals will create a state of instability in the region that may extend for years.
Regarding the summary of the content of the American-Israeli dispute, Al-Duwairi said that the main problem is that Washington and Tel Aviv are consulting about Gaza without putting the main party in the equation (the resistance) in these discussions, stressing that the resistance “will not give up a single square meter of land.”
