Retired Israeli Major General: Washington's talk about a Palestinian state is just a pressure tactic. Israeli Ministers Smotrich and Ben Gvir are holding the Israeli government hostage, according to a former intelligence official.

As for the Rafah crossing, the former military intelligence commander called for coordination with Egypt. Because any movement without it may be a problem, and he stressed his confidence in the possibility of obtaining this coordination in one way or another. He attributed the delay in the attack on Rafah to the political level, and not to the army.
