In mid October, the IDF chief of staff, Aviv Cohavi, briefed both Netanyahu and Blue and White leader Benny Gantz on the state of Israel’s security. The situation according to Cohavi, is grim. With regional stability at a low and threats of war on multiple fronts, Israel faces serious security challenges.
Some pundits argue that Cohavi is simply trying to enrich the IDFs coffers. Others claim that this time it’s for real.
So, the question still stands: is Israel going to war? And if so, what will it look like?
