OPINION:
Israel, in the aftermath of a Hezbollah attack on a critical airport in the north, launched an air strike that killed a senior commander for the terror group’s Radwan force.
“This is a very painful strike,” an unnamed security source for the killed commander, Wissam al-Tawil, said in Reuters. Another unnamed source, meanwhile, predicted to Reuters that “things will flare up now.”
Against this backdrop, three National Unity party members in Israel refused to attend the recent War Cabinet meeting led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, due to reported dissensions with other government officials over how the war is progressing.
“‘Division’ in Israeli government as ministers boycott meeting,” The Citizen wrote in a headline.
But Gol Kalev, author of Judaism 3.0 and columnist for The Jerusalem Post, said such heated debates are not to be confused with a division about the important points of the war: that Israel must eradicate Hamas terrorists.
On that, Kalev said, unity is strong no matter the political party.
