  • I don’t think this is a fascist power grab. Benny Gantz is a centrist and a one of the main opposition leaders to Netanyahu.

    This part is pretty well documented and agreed upon by political experts:

    He’s been loudly advocating for a “day after plan” for the War in Gaza, i.e. what is the actual plan for Israels invasion and what are we going to do when it’s done? The day after plan is something Netanyahu has refused to provide. Many speculate that he hasn’t provided it because his plan is full occupation of Gaza and making it fully part of the Israeli state.

    This part is conjecture and maybe wishful thinking on my part:

    Netanyahu refuses to end the war so that he can stay in power. I think that Gantz recognizes the great international harm that the invasion of Gaza has done to Israel, which will only get worse until the invasion is over and Israel withdraws from Gaza. Gantz sees this as an opportunity make himself prime minister, end the invasion, and start some sort of peace process. This would allow him to start rebuilding Israels reputation and finding ways to establish a more stable peace.
