Kassioun Editorial 1194: The Battle Continues!
The “Israelis”, along with the Americans, are betting that the rapid, painful, and intense strikes that have been directed at Lebanon and Hezbollah over the past two weeks, leading to the assassination of its Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah and a number of the party’s leaders, will be sufficient to secure protection for “Israel”, by paralyzing Hezbollah and ending the northern front, and at the very least by completely separating it from Gaza and the West Bank.
The Zionist entity’s behavior during this period can be described as precisely an attempt to jump out of the water in which it is being boiled (see the last Kassioun editorial: The Western Frog Is Getting Simmered). Let us remember that the “Israeli” has been well aware of this issue for at least several months. It expressed this publicly through its ambassador to the UN, Gilad Erdan, on April 14 of this year, when he said in his usual showy and denial manner: “We are not a frog in boiling water, we are a nation of lions”.
What can be concluded from the intensity of events over the past few days can be summarized as follows:
First: The “Israeli” opening the battle in the West Bank was an escape forward from its inability to achieve its goals in Gaza, and its inability to end the battle in a way that would not leave it a loser. The same applies to the jump to Lebanon, which is also an escape forward within a war that is the longest and most draining in the Zionist entity’s entire history.
Second: In addition to the data and figures that show the extent of the exhaustion and depletion the Zionist entity is experiencing, the most important of which is the number of internally displaced persons from the occupied Palestinian north to the center and south, the estimates of which range between tens and hundreds of thousands, and the numbers of those who left the entity with a one-way ticket, numbering in the hundreds of thousands this year, and the decline in the number of new immigrants to the Zionist entity to zero, the best person who can express the current situation of the Zionist entity is one of its most famous and important supporters, and we mean Thomas Friedman, who wrote on the 25th of this month: “Israel lives under terrible danger and an existential threat… The only thing I know for sure is that the path on which Netanyahu is now taking Israel is a path to destruction, surrounded by a ring of fire. If you continue on this path, the most talented people in Israel will start leaving, and the Israel you know will disappear forever”.
Third: Friedman touches on a fundamental issue in the foundations of this Zionist entity’s existence, most notably “high security, prosperity, and rapid, destructive wars”. All of these elements have practically begun to evaporate, and with that, a large number of settlers will prefer to leave this country once and for all, especially those who rely on advanced industry, similar to what happened with the French settlers in Algeria, whose exhaustion led to their flight by the hundreds of thousands in one year before liberation. Perhaps what will remain in the Zionist entity is the likes of the Haredim who do not work, fight, or study, and who are more backward and fanatical than ISIS itself.
The overall situation in which “Israel” finds itself is pushing it to try to jump out of the boiling pot of water, but the only result it will get is that the temperature will increase rapidly under the pot. The resistance forces in the entire region are not required to direct major, decisive blows. The uneven war being waged can be won with points only, and by continuing to exhaust the enemy, which is what has happened, is happening, and will continue no matter how severe the blows the enemy directs. Neither the displaced people of the north will return, nor will the Lebanese front be closed or separated. Rather, the enemy will move toward a new, long chapter of depletion, in which it is certain that the battle is ongoing and that the Zionist entity’s chances of enduring prolonged exhaustion are nil.
