The clock struck seven and the war between Iran and Israel stopped. Trump claimed to be the peacemaker, and Iran claimed victory. Only Netanyahu made no statement, as the sound of the Beersheba rocket drowned out the conversation.
Has Iran's nuclear capability been destroyed? Half by half? A quarter or three-quarters? Where has the heavy water disappeared, and what will happen to Iran's membership in the IAEA? What will happen to the surveillance cameras and monitoring personnel?
After 12 days of bombing, explosions, and assassination, the fate of the heavy water remains unknown. There are no cameras or monitors.
Netanyahu is trying to resort to deception and cunning, perhaps to create an image of victory. He tries to continue the killing for another week, but he doesn't succeed. Two days... one day... and his boss tells him: Not a minute... Tell the pilots to go back where they came from.
Netanyahu bids farewell to his sister, crying, saying, "I'm sorry I couldn't protect you."
Hundreds of thousands of Israelis are sleeping rough in the streets of Sharm el-Sheikh after hotels filled up. Apartments in Cyprus are filling up with migrants. Boats and ships are docking on Greek shores, greeted by citizens with slogans such as "Freedom for Palestine" and "You are not welcome in our country."
The fronts have been exhausted: Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Iran. Can I open a fifth front? Perhaps Egypt or Pakistan.
Just hours after the Beersheba rocket, three soldiers were killed and 15 others wounded in the Khan Yunis ambush, which has been under bombardment for 627 days.
Fatigue, exhaustion, and the voices of bored soldiers, the sound of demonstrations around the world. Images of famine and the screams of children in the Gaza Strip pierce the walls. Images of prisoners in the hands of their families in front of the government headquarters. Ben-Gvir and Smotrich shout at him: Continue...continue! Netanyahu confirms that he has reached the end, that he has lost his job and the job of Israel. Does he await trial or the fate of Rabin?
Netanyahu is thinking about the moment he is led in handcuffs to court. It doesn't matter which court—it could be an Israeli court or a Belgian one.
The choices are difficult, and in any case, Netanyahu will not remain in power, and he will be erased from history, as well as from geography.
