Part 3/7:
Despite Netanyahu’s firm stance, there is mounting criticism both within Israel and internationally. Key voices, including retired military generals, former intelligence chiefs, and even some former prime ministers, have expressed concern over the current military strategy. A notable development is a letter signed by approximately 600 retired Israeli officials addressed to U.S. President Donald Trump, urging him to exert pressure on Netanyahu to end the conflict. These figures argue that Israel's focus should shift from relentless military pursuits to diplomatic solutions, emphasizing that Hamas no longer represents a strategic threat in the way it once did.
