Gaza Nightmare Chases ’Israel’: They Are Aware of Our Weak Points

Local Editor

"Israeli" Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Benny Gantz stressed Wednesday the need to fortify and support the "Israeli" settlers in Gaza. "It's not only about benefits, but about strengthening these "communities" for the crises which I believe are still ahead."

Gantz said Hamas "recognizes it as a weak point."

The "Israeli" military leader also addressed the political and security changes occurring throughout the Middle East. "When you take a security and strategy outlook and take a quick tour of the near and far Mediterranean, it is hard not to notice the extent of the tremendous changes we see before our eyes."

Gantz added: "The borders between states are being blurred with intense violence, effectively creating ethno-sectarian entities with tribal rule where the sword rules and slowly, ever so slowly, the reality changes from a strategic point of view."

Gantz warned that the Middle East flux carries unforeseen dangers. "We are seeing that the components of threat are changing, that alongside the conventional, regular threats, the threat of terror is increasing, the threats from asymmetric conflicts and the threats of non-discriminate fire. Even as we speak, we are simultaneously facing a new battlefield in the cyber-arena - all the time, everywhere, and from anywhere."
