James Stavridis: Netanyahu Will Have To Create Some Kind of Post-War Gaza Plan After Benny Gantz’s Warning
EXCERPT:
STAVRIDIS: "Let's start with Benny Gantz. I think that in many ways is the most quickly moving kind of event here. And that's because General Benny Ganz, who I know very well, from his days running the IDF when I was running U.S.-European command, and we worked together on many, many security deals. He's quite serious. He's a very steady pair of hands. In the context of Israeli politics he's a centrist. He will come through with what he has said to Benjamin Netanyahu, meaning Netanyahu is going to, my view, have to create some kind of post-strife plan. Benny doesn't quite have all of the votes to absolutely force a collapse of the government, but he's pretty close and -- and a centrist figure. So that one, politically, I think is top of the watch list, Joe, what happens with that in Israel.”
