Eisenkot Like Netanyahu
The article traces Gadi Eisenkot’s military and political career, noting that his image as an “ethical general” conflicts with his record. During the 2018 Gaza protests, more than 100 snipers were deployed on his orders; at least 189 protesters were killed and more than 6,000 injured, according to figures cited in the UN investigation. Eisenkot joined the emergency government after the October 7, 2023 attack, then resigned in June 2024 over disagreements with Netanyahu about how the war was being conducted and the absence of a plan for what would follow—not over its military objectives. Eisenkot rejects the establishment of a Palestinian state and a two-state solution, and supports settlements and continued Israeli security control, making his dispute with Netanyahu primarily about the way the war is managed. Preliminary results showed Netanyahu’s bloc winning 53 seats, compared with 48 for Eisenkot’s bloc and 19 for the Arab parties. This leaves Eisenkot facing a dilemma in forming a government, despite having previously ruled out relying on the Arab parties.
