Israeli analysts and officials: Foreign media do not trust the army’s story, and clearer evidence is needed

Videos presented by the Israeli occupation army spokesman that he believes reveal the existence of tunnels under hospitals in the Gaza Strip received attention from the Israeli media, as one spokeswoman believed that the foreign media does not trust this and that clearer evidence must be presented, while another believed that the matter comes within the framework of Preparing the world for the upcoming stages.


The occupation army spokesman, Daniel Hagari, had published a video clip showing what he said was a tunnel located under the Hamad bin Khalifa Hospital, which was funded by the Qatari government to serve the residents of Gaza. This was denied by the Gaza Strip government, stressing that these allegations are part of a disinformation campaign carried out by the occupation targeting Justifying the bombing of hospitals. Channel 12 quoted Dafna, a political correspondent for the channel, that despite their confidence - in Israel - in what the army spokesman put forward, he must present more clear matters in order to be able to convince the international media. She said, “We must understand that the foreign media that he is talking to "Hajari doesn't understand things like us."


She added, "We must know how to overcome this gap... between the trust we have and the lack of trust in the global media. We must provide materials that this media can deal with."


While the channel's military correspondent, Nir Davori, believed that what Hagari presented showed the extent to which the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) used hospitals in the Gaza Strip above and below ground, as he claimed, indicating his belief that this was "preparing the world for the upcoming preparations that Israel intends to make."


Meanwhile, Nimrod Sheffer, former head of the Planning Department and Air Force Command, asked Channel 13 what the government intends to do the day after the operation, after the army announced that the blow to the Hamas movement was so strong that its organization no longer poses a practical threat.


As for Channel 11, it quoted former Prime Minister Ehud Barak as confirming that while doing anything to free the detainees in Gaza, with wisdom, deep understanding and information, he said in this context, “We must understand that these people are not the same case as Shalit, who was a survivor of a killed tank crew. He was captured as a result of a failed military operation by us.”


He added in this context, "The tank crew should have killed the terrorists and not been killed by them, but in this case we are talking about people kidnapped there as a result of the negligence of the State of Israel. It is morally unacceptable to sacrifice them."


Meanwhile, political analyst Amnon Abranovich told Channel 12 that the ideal thing is to return the detainees in Gaza and “exterminate everyone who participated in the massacre, disarm Hamas and Gaza, and for another body, whether the authority or others, to restore a demilitarized Gaza,” he said. He added that the public in Israel is united, there is neither right nor left, and the majority of them are in the center, and the true image of victory is social, in addition to restoring the borders with Gaza and returning citizens to the southern borders and the northern borders.


On the other hand, Yossi Keren, acting head of the local council, Shaher Hanegev, said that for the settlers of the Gaza envelope to be able to return, this must be through the army assuring them that it is possible to do so safely, because trust still exists in the army, which means the weakness of that trust is in the Politicians.
