Netanyahu’s Internal-External Problems, Pressures in Forming the Government

Strategic Council Online - Interview: An expert on Middle East affairs, commenting about the process of formation of a government by Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of the Zionist regime, said: It was almost in early November when the parliamentary or the Knesset elections were held in occupied Palestine, and despite the passage of more than 7 weeks, Netanyahu still has not been able to form the government, and for this reason, he has appealed to the president for another ten-day extension.

In an interview with the website of the Strategic Council on Foreign Relations, Jafar Qanadbashi added: If Netanyahu fails to form a cabinet, this mission should be handed over to someone else.

According to the expert, despite Netanyahu’s experiences and his records in forming the cabinet, it seems that this time he feels powerless in this matter and has faced many problems and obstacles that are unprecedented in the history of Israel.

Qanadbashi explained about the obstacles and challenges facing Netanyahu, adding: First of all, in addition to the problems that the Israelis have been continuously facing in the regional, domestic and international arenas, this time Netanyahu has been encountered with another paralyzing problem. On the one hand, the Zionist citizens expect that Netanyahu will compensate for some of the shortcomings of the previous prime minister and take measures in the domestic and regional arena for the welfare of the Zionist community and also for the creation of security and, on the other hand, the people who are now in his team to form the cabinet has become a problem themselves in this process.

He continued: In other words, at present, the internal and external concerns about Israel are about the coming to power of very extreme people who have new plans for how to establish security in their agenda and demand that Netanyahu’s cabinet, contrary to the normal trend in Israel, take over many military powers that were previously exclusively at the disposal of the army.

According to the expert, extremist parties in Israel have always been in favor of harsh plans that are against legal standards and have constantly protested why the various governments in Israel do not fulfill their duties in severely suppressing the Palestinians and also dealing with the opposite parties in the region.

Also, Qanadbashi said that the activities of those parties were mainly in Knesset and limited media areas. But now, with the holding of November 1st elections and Netanyahu’s decision to seek help from those extremist parties, the sphere of activity of those parties has been extended into the Israeli executive branch.

The expert on Middle East affairs continued: The heads of those parties, including Netanyahu’s elected security minister, have demanded that the powers related to establishing security in the West Bank be removed from the Israeli army and placed in the hands of the cabinet and the security minister. An issue that has been considered in the media environment of the occupied Palestinian as a creeping coup against the army of the Zionist regime and has caused divisions both in the army and in the executive body of Israel.

Qanadbashi emphasized: It is in such a situation that in the international situation, there have been concerns about the establishment of this extremist group in the Israeli executive branch. In particular, American officials and Democrats have expressed their implicit opposition to the continuation of such a process in Israel under various titles.

He explained: Actually, the concern of the Democrats in the United States and some currents of power in Europe is that with the coming to power of those extremist parties in Israel and changing the regime’s attitude in the most violent ways may cause social explosions in Palestine and also implementation of some Israel’s military and regional plans in under such situation will upset the existing balance in the West Asian region.

Qanadbashi stated that in order to form the cabinet, in addition to the usual domestic opposition, Netanyahu is now facing opposition from the army on the one hand and international reactions on the other hand, adding: In the international arena, they want him to prevent those extremist parties from gaining power, or at least to avoid their interference in the army and taking control of Israel’s internal and external security affairs.

The expert said in conclusion that due to such obstacles and challenges, Netanyahu has a difficult path ahead of him for the formation of the cabinet in a few days.

Dr. Kharrazi's response to the new US position on Iran's nuclear program:
It Was America That Abandoned Nuclear Diplomacy/ Iran Also Considers Diplomacy the Best Approach

Strategic Council Online: The President of the Strategic Council on Foreign Relations stated: “The US State Department spokesperson, after my interview with Al Jazeera, reiterated their past remarks, stating that they won’t allow Iran to build nuclear weapons, but ultimately said diplomacy is the best approach. Yes, we too prefer diplomacy since based on the Fatwa of our Supreme Leader are not for nuclear weapons; rather, we are advocates of diplomacy to make the Middle East a nuclear-free region. But, in case the Israeli regime threatens us with nuclear weapons, we surely cannot sit idle and wait for permission from others.”

Europe’s Confusion in Securing Bab al-Mandab Strait and the Red Sea

Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The strategic Strait of Bab al-Mandab and the Red Sea have recently faced serious problems and crises due to the Gaza war. This is because of the protectionist approach of the Yemeni army forces toward Palestine, which, since the beginning of the Israeli regime’s attacks on the Gaza Strip, has included attacks on ships bound for or from the origin of the regime in the Red Sea.
They said they will continue their attacks until the Israeli regime’s military aggression in the Gaza Strip ends. The United States, as the most important supporter of the Israeli regime, was the first country to respond to this policy of Yemeni army forces and tried to form a global coalition to counter these attacks under the cover of supporting freedom of navigation, which, of course, failed because of conflicts of interests of Western countries and ended in the actions of the US and British attacks on positions in Yemen. Of course, although European countries were not seriously involved in the American coalition, they have numerous and complex interests in this inflammatory, and as a result, have adopted a particular and independent approach.
