It's interesting just looking at what's been happening these last 20 months.
00:04
I mean, I'm just wondering whether you get the impression Israel has a strategy here
00:09
or whether it's sort of taking each day as it comes.
00:12
What's your thinking?
00:15
Well, if there is a strategy, it's not declared.
00:18
And to the extent that that strategy exists,
00:20
this is the strategy of the far-right factions of the government
00:24
who are able to impose their will on Netanyahu.
00:27
And their strategy is to eventually take Gaza over,
00:31
cancel the disengagement of 2005,
00:34
and settle in Gaza permanently while controlling the security perimeter of Gaza.
00:40
I believe, and I think it's also validated in polls,
00:43
that most Israelis do not support that.
00:46
Most Israelis would like to see some other arrangement that ensures security
00:50
but does not involve direct control of the Palestinians in Gaza.
00:54
And therefore, I believe that the prime minister is in a position
00:57
where he's actually unable, for political reasons,
01:01
to articulate a vision that brings together the day after with the political horizon,
01:07
the economic side with the political side, with regard to Gaza.
01:10
And therefore, what we're seeing is that the Israeli government
01:13
is really pushing for very small deals, you know, hostage exchange for prisoners,
01:17
very, if at all, very short ceasefires.
01:22
But at the end of the day, the current political structure in Israel
01:25
doesn't have the ability to negotiate a war-ending deal.
