Support for Israel is declining

As Israel’s attacks on Gaza enter their second month, public reactions continue unabated. Conflicts are expected to continue for longer because Israel places importance on international support for continued attacks and its army is unable to achieve the objectives it has set.

With the start of fighting on October 7, Israel used the first day’s images of Israeli cities surrounding the Gaza Strip for the international public and received support from the West, especially the United States.

However, when images of destruction and massacre began to emerge in the Gaza Strip, international public attention turned to the Palestinians. In this context, the capitals of America, Europe and Arab countries began to witness demonstrations of solidarity with the Palestinians.

In addition to African countries such as the Republic of South Africa, Tunisia and Yemen, thousands of people flocked to Paris, the capital of France, despite the cold, European countries such as Geneva, Switzerland and London, the capital of England. and the Gaza Strip of the US and Israel. Israeli Jews held demonstrations around the world, including in Tel Aviv, demanding an end to their attacks on Israel and a ceasefire.

THE WORLD SUPPORTS PALESTINE

Israeli TV Channel 12 reported: “A month later, we are faced with a new reality. “The images that stand out in the international media are not images of massacres in Jewish settlements, but images of death and destruction in Gaza.”

The news stated that Israel’s “self-defense story” did not fulfill its duty to provide sufficient space for the army’s activities, and emphasized that Palestinian stories and photographs influenced global public opinion.

In addition to broadcasting the scenes of death and destruction in Gaza, the United Nations and international organizations are calling for a ceasefire, in response to the blockade of medical supplies, food, fuel and electricity from entering the Gaza Strip.

Israel is not satisfied with the attitudes of these organizations, which enjoy a high reputation among the people of the world.

It was noted on Channel 12 news that Israel has so far been unable to create the breathing room it desired, and this could create difficulties in achieving the goals it has set.

The news noted that if Israel rushes to achieve its goals, the possibility of making mistakes will increase.

It was stated that this point, reached a month after the start of the conflict, was of vital importance to the continuation of the conflict, and that Israel entered this war without any plan for the future.

ISRAEL’S BLOOD LOSS TO THE INTERNATIONAL PUBLIC

Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has actively appeared on local television channels since November 4 to drum up support for the continuation of the war.

In his statement on social media platform

With this visit, Bennett stated that his goal is “to help strengthen the Israeli government’s position before the public, the US Congress and the administration to give army commanders full freedom of action to eliminate Hamas.”

Bennett noted that global public opinion is no longer in Israel’s interest and noted that pro-Palestinian content is 15 times more than pro-Israeli content on the TikTok platform.

In addition to official spokespersons, the Israeli military also assigned many military officers to speak on foreign media to defend its attacks.

Furthermore, it is worth noting that dozens of Israeli journalists mobilized to spread the “Israel narrative” through social media platforms.

DEMONSTRATION AGAINST WAR FOR JEWS

After Jewish groups in the United States played a leading role in demonstrations against the attacks on Gaza in New York, Washington, San Francisco and other states, Jews around the world participated in demonstrations in support of a ceasefire in Gaza and the end of the war, including Israel.

A humanitarian ceasefire must be implemented to allow the resumption of essential services and the resumption of essential trade. “This ceasefire is also vital to facilitate the distribution of aid, allow the release of hostages and provide comfort to civilians.”
