Israel ‘beginning to choke’ as conflict with Iran drains arms stocks: Analysis

يونيو 19, 2025 - 14:13
In an Al Jazeera interview, Israeli commentator Ori Goldberg described the public mood as "righteously indignant" but firmly backing strikes on Iran, with even government critics supporting the campaign. He noted Israel’s military installations are often embedded in civilian areas, creating a cycle where "the war has achieved its own critical mass." Despite 700 Iranian casualties and attacks like the Be’er Sheva hospital strike, Goldberg doubted Israelis would turn against the war, citing generations raised on Iran as an "existential enemy." However, he warned Israel’s military is "beginning to choke" as munitions dwindle across multiple fronts, making US intervention crucial. While Netanyahu seeks a victory narrative, Goldberg suggested Israel might accept a ceasefire if framed as strengthening regional dominance, unlike Gaza, where no such claim exists.
