Israel’s operational failures despite western military support

The Israeli

military

is one of the world's largest arms importers and receives substantial

support

from Western nations, both financially and politically. The United States alone provides Tel Aviv with at least $4 billion annually in

military

aid. Add to that the millions of dollars from the United Kingdom, Germany, France and Canada, despite the global

support

it receives, Israel has failed in the two objectives it set for itself since it launched its brutal war in Gaza in October, eliminating Hamas and rescuing their hostages from the besieged Enclave. This failure has raised questions about the effectiveness and reliability of the Israeli military.

But these questions are not new during the second Israel-Lebanon war in 2006. Israel came under intense scrutiny both domestically and internationally after it failed to subdue Hezbollah or recover its captured soldiers alive despite support of the West, but why is Israel not achieving its objectives in The Iran Corporation's 2012 reports highlight Ed that the Israeli army had serious

operational

and strategic deficiencies, criticizing the army's preparation for war. Yak brick former utsman of the Israeli army also revealed that the army faced systematic problems, including inadequate training and logistical support that made it unprepared for large-scale conflicts, these logistical, strategic and disciplinary deficiencies were reflected in the reaction of the army to the Hamas attack on October 7, despite reports indicating the possibility of an attack.

Israeli forces failed to act preemptively, costing them 250 hostages, half of whom are still in Hamas custody. a debilitating long-term war that has cost Israel more than $60 billion after declaring war on October 8 Tel Aviv repeatedly violated international law using Lavender, an artificial intelligence system developed by the main unit of the Israeli Army Intelligence Division. 8,200 The Israeli military identified tens of thousands of civilians as potential terrorists and legitimate targets have also killed foreign aid workers and media crews, as well as Israeli hostages carrying white flags and Israeli soldiers with friendly fire. They then proceeded to investigate the matter.

On the other hand, there are complaints within the ranks according to new recruits hadits. The army was deployed in Gaza with minimal training and although Israeli army spokesman Daniel Hagari denied such a serious situation. Israeli media reported that soldiers were sent to Gaza without even water bottles, the army also opened a hotline to address the lack of equipment in reserve units. and held donation drives for basic items such as portable chargers, underwear, hygiene products and toiletries, but Army morale is already declining and a growing number of reservists are abstaining from service. There is also a significant degree of disorder within the ranks of the Army with increasing reports of misconduct among soldiers, this includes looting and vandalism in Gaza which Israeli soldiers proudly broadcast on social media in a mockingly malavan tone, trashing claims of Israel that its army is the most moral of all and critically affecting its image.

This has been compounded by official statements that were refuted by independents. Investigations and media reports, such as the misinterpretation of a calendar as a list including the names of Hamas fighters, furthermore, Hamas, Israel's alleged target in the post, continues to operate in Gaza, after more After 8 months of war, they were able to infiltrate Israeli lines outside Gaza. on June 6, 2024, 244 days after the war Furthermore, the army has been at the center of selfish rivalries. Retired members of the military claimed that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been manipulating military operations to serve his political interests in order to satisfy his nationalist agenda. and to prevent far-right parties from abandoning his government while Netanyahu's wife claims that members of his own army are planning a coup to overthrow the government.

The army's failure to achieve both objectives in Gaza despite the protracted war has shattered the myth of the Invincible Army amid misallocation of resources, soldier misconduct, logistical and strategic inefficiency, and individual political grievances. , The Israeli Army is being accused of strategic shortsightedness and has admitted significant losses despite the extensive Western support it receives, Will the Israeli military's growing shortcomings cause Western nations to re-evaluate their investments in Tel Aviv
