Netanyahu’s ultimatums – What is he asking from the US?
–
The developments in the Middle East seem to be stormy, with the situation worsening day by day. Things are on a tightrope as Israel and Hezbollah are locked in a protracted conflict, with Israel talking of an imminent invasion of Lebanon in the coming days if Nasrallah is not removed.
–
Against the background of the developments, the Minister of Defense of Israel, Yoav Galand, made an emergency trip to the USA in order to meet with top officials of the Biden administration to discuss the developments on the “twin fronts” in Gaza and Lebanon.
–
Specifically, Gallant, accompanied by the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Israeli Armed Forces, will meet with Lloyd Austin (Minister of Defense), Anthony Blinken (Minister of Foreign Affairs) as well as Joe Biden’s special envoy, Amos Hochstein (born in Israel who recently visited Israel, but also Lebanon, as we mentioned in a related article recently).
–
The meeting is expected to take place in a tense atmosphere, as Israel brings back to the fore the issue of reduced arms shipments from the US, an issue that has caused discomfort in the US, describing it as “complicated”.
–
Gallant delivers Netanyahu’s ultimatums, which are as follows, according to the Israeli website N12:- If Nasrallah is not removed, then Israel will be forced to act in Lebanon immediately
- Arms shipments to Israel, from the US, must resume at an unimpeded pace
- A war against Hezbollah should have specific Objective Objectives (OBGs), Israel cannot repeat a broad ground invasion in Lebanon, as in Gaza
- The operations in Lebanon will use weapons and weapons systems that have never been used before (this statement is not a threat from the Netanyahu government, but is part of the limited operations inside Lebanon, in which Israel believes that if if state-of-the-art weapon systems are used, then the ANSK of Israel will be established more easily. We repeat, according to the lessons of the 2006 war, during the second Lebanon war, this may not be the case)
- Israel lends legitimacy to such an operation, legitimacy which, according to Netanyahu, will be ensured through a diplomatic campaign, organized by the US (again, the US cannot guarantee this with countries such as Russia and China, to be on the other side and fighting for the opposite. Not to mention the recent arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Hamas, by the International Criminal Court in The Hague)
- The said diplomatic coalition will also be military, since it will provide an “Umbrella” of anti-ballistic protection over Israel, orchestrated with the country’s anti-ballistic shield (Iron Dome, David’s Sling, Arrow-3).
- Israel will not under any circumstances accept the Biden administration’s cessation of operations in Rafah as a condition for providing aid to Lebanon. No, pending the transition to phase C, which will return the hostages dead or alive and further weaken Hamas.
