Israel Vows To Save Its Army From Politics, Tension May Increase
Israel vows to save its army from politics, tension may increase.
Israel’s leaders vowed on Monday that they will not allow the country’s army to come into the hands of politics.
This was done after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu increased the control of far-right coalition partners over security forces in the occupied West Bank.
While Netanyahu’s conservative Likud party retained the Defense Ministry, which runs the authority coordinating policy in the West Bank.
It has handed over some of the negotiating policy-making to hardline politician Bezalel Smotrich. Itamar Ben-Gvir, as Minister of National Security, commands the border police.
The coalition’s structure has raised questions about the authority of an army and how it will handle tinderbox areas where the Palestinians seek statehood of their own.
“We Will Protect an IDF.”
Defense Minister Yoav Galant said at the ceremony of appointing the new top general Hergi Halevi, “I will make sure that external pressure such as political, legal and other problems I keep to myself and do not reach the IDF (Israel Defense Forces).”
Harji Halevi grew up in a Jewish religious-nationalist household. They avoided public displays of piety or politics.
“We will keep an IDF safe and try to keep it objective, principled, and away from professional considerations that are not related to defense,” Herji said.
Israel vows to save its army from politics: The ever-increasing tension between Palestine and Israel.
The tension between Palestine and Israel is increasing continuously. Last Thursday, during a raid in the West Bank, the Israeli army shot three Palestinians, killing them.
The incident was the latest bloodshed in the escalation of violence between Israel and Palestine in recent months.
