Zionist Analyst: Israel’s Military Has Failed in Gaza

Avi Issacharoff, a prominent Israeli journalist and military analyst, has voiced sharp criticism of the Israeli government’s performance in Gaza. He stated that the official objectives of Israel’s military campaign in the region have not been achieved. According to Issacharoff, despite months of intense fighting, Hamas remains firmly in control of Gaza, and there are no signs of its organizational collapse.

He described the current situation as a painful yet unavoidable compromise, attributing it to the Israeli leadership’s inability to convert battlefield gains into meaningful political outcomes.

Narrative control is a crucial element in any war. In the past, Israel managed to project an image of victory to its public even when its operational success was limited. However, candid remarks from analysts like Issacharoff suggest that this time, even the narrative has unraveled.

Israeli public opinion is increasingly confused and distrustful of the government, and confidence in promises to eliminate Hamas is waning. Issacharoff’s comments reflect a broader consensus among analysts: without a structural shift in Gaza’s governance, Israel’s military campaign amounts to a strategic failure.
