Nournews: The 80th UN anniversary meeting showed that the era of sidelining the Palestinian issue has ended. Western efforts over decades to cover up Zionist crimes under labels such as “terrorism” or “nuclear accusations against Iran” are no longer effective. This time, Palestine became the central focus of world leaders’ speeches; to the extent that even France, a long-time supporter of Tel Aviv, officially spoke about recognizing a Palestinian state. The global wave of support for Palestine, coupled with popular protests and boycotts, has cornered the Zionist regime in political, cultural, sports, and economic arenas like never before. Netanyahu’s explicit admission of Israel’s isolation is clear evidence of the failure of past strategies and the triumph of the resistance path.
More Killings: Netanyahu’s Survival Strategy
An examination of Netanyahu’s political record shows that, to escape domestic crises and corruption cases, he has consistently resorted to war and bloodshed. Whenever pressure for elections intensified, he launched a new war against Gaza or the region. On the eve of the Jewish New Year, he even promised the destruction of the “Iran axis”—a promise that reflects less his strength than his need to create a war atmosphere to delay elections. This reckless mindset renders the lives of Zionist prisoners in resistance hands worthless and shows that his political survival takes precedence over everything else.
The Reality on the Ground vs. Tel Aviv’s Illusions
Netanyahu’s grandiose claims of “victory in Gaza” and the “destruction of Hamas” do not match the realities on the battlefield. Gaza’s resistance remains powerful after 23 months, while the Israeli army has failed to free its prisoners. Israeli military commanders themselves admit their incapacity against Hamas and consider urban warfare equivalent to suicide. Simultaneously, Yemeni missile and drone operations have pushed Israel into desperation and even forced the United States to retreat. Past wars, including the 12-day conflict, have shown that any threat against Iran is met with a crushing and deterrent response—reducing Netanyahu’s threats to empty slogans.
Regional and Global Responsibility
Netanyahu’s insistence on continuing crimes and war increases the risk of escalating the Middle East crisis. Regional countries must unite politically and provide practical support to the resistance to counter this reckless approach. Pressure from public opinion and governments on the West can also push them from mere rhetoric to concrete actions against Tel Aviv. The achievements of Gaza’s resistance and the widespread recognition of a Palestinian state in global forums demonstrate that the only path to securing the rights of the Palestinian people is active resistance, not compromise. Meanwhile, Iran must maintain internal cohesion and strengthen its deterrence capabilities, remaining ready to respond decisively to any threat from the Zionist regime—because the region’s future depends on today’s decisions.
