Zionist Israel Teetering On The Brink Despite Its Ongoing Genocide Of Palestinians

Zionist Israel’s tactical successes in Gaza, Lebanon and Syria must not be confused with strategic gains. The genocide in Gaza and starving nearly two million Palestinians are not signs of strength but of profound weakness.

The zionist war criminals are desperately trying to camouflage their failures on the military and political fronts by intensifying their crimes. Killing unarmed civilians, especially babies, does not reflect power; it represents cowardice.

Israel’s conduct since October 2023 has also stripped the mask of its claim to perpetual victimhood. The overwhelming majority of people in the world, including a large number of Americans, do not see Israel as a “victim”.

They view the zionists as genocidal maniacs. More worrisome for the zionists is the fact that the vast majority of Americans consider them as parasites and a burden on the US.

While the indicted war criminal Benjamin Mileikowsky (aka Netanyahu) is trying to force the US into another war against the Islamic Republic of Iran, his tactics also expose Israel’s weakness. The last time the zionist entity attacked the Islamic Republic, it got a bloody nose despite the US also joining in the attack. If Israel is such a mighty power, why does it need American involvement and support?

The zionists enjoy attacking and killing others—82% of Israelis support the expulsion of Palestinians from Gaza—but if there is retaliation, then they panic and flee. This is evident from the number of Israelis that have fled the country in the last two years since fighting intensified in October 2023.

There have been appeals by Israeli politicians for people “to not leave”. The flight of such a large number has affected the economy badly. It is only shored up by American handouts.

Within weeks of Israel’s launch of its genocidal war on Gaza, the Washington Post reported the damage to Israel’s economy. “Israel is spending treasure deploying an average of more than 220,000 reservists into battle over the past three months and subsidizing their salaries,” the Post wrote.

“Many of these reservists are high-tech workers in cyber, agriculture, finance, navigation, artificial intelligence, pharmaceuticals and climate solutions. Israel’s tech sector relies on foreign investment.

“But that was diminishing even before the war, in part out of concern for the instability that investors believed the right-wing government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had brought to Israel.”

In October 2025, the Israeli parliament, the Knesset, released a report about the number of Israelis leaving, causing alarm among politicians. The Knesset’s Research and Information Center (RIC) said between 2020 and 2024, some 145,900 more Israelis left the country for the long term than returned.

There has also been a surge in requests from Israeli tech experts to be relocated abroad, according to the Israel Advanced ​Technology Industries Association (IATI). Should this materialize in a significant way, it will be a major blow to the zionist economy, already teetering on the brink.

The Eilat port has shut down due to lack of business. Ships are unable to arrive in the port, thanks to a blockade imposed by the Ansarallah of Yemen. While the Yemeni revolutionaries have reduced their attacks, shipping companies are not taking chances.

Further, more than 66,000 businesses have shut down since October 2023. That is a massive blow to a country that survives on business and selling its products and expertise abroad.

Severe damage was also inflicted on the zionist entity during the 12-day war it launched against the Islamic Republic. Zionist authorities acknowledged that more than 50 Iranian missiles successfully hit targets in Israel during the 12-day period. The scale of damage from Iranian strikes is difficult to assess fully because of stringent military censorship.

Zionist officials, however, estimate that Iranian missile strikes caused around 10 billion shekels (approximately $3 billion) in damage to buildings, public services, and businesses. The actual figure is probably much higher.

Among the most successful Iranian strikes was the one carried out on the Weizmann Scientific Research Institute in Tel Aviv. The building was badly damaged. Years of research was wiped out. A number of scientists were also killed.

Zionist Israel’s main objective in launching multiple wars is to achieve total regional dominance. The twin policies of co-opting some regional countries through the so-called Abraham Accords and attacking others through military aggression have run their course.

While it enjoys air superiority, its ground forces have suffered massive casualties in the genocidal war it launched on Gaza in October 2023. The myth of zionist invincibility lies buried in the ruins of Gaza. It is now struggling for mere survival.

The casualties it suffered in Gaza as well as in the wars on Hizbullah and Iran have caused a massive recruitment gap of some 12,000 soldiers. Add to that the number of soldiers suffering from mental health issues, some 85,000 of them, and one can begin to see the magnitude of the challenge facing the zionist entity.

In August 2025, the Jerusalem Post reported that more than 50 Israeli soldiers had committed suicide since October 2023. In the seven months since then, this number has definitely risen.

Thousands of Israeli soldiers and reservists lead abnormal lives. They are scared of crowds, traffic jams and even own family members if someone slams the door. They have become a threat to their own families.

According to the “Face of Society” report published on January 26 by the Central Bureau of Statistics, Israeli society is facing mounting pressures two years after the outbreak of the war, particularly among families of reserve soldiers.

The zionist entity has been trying to enlist the ultra-orthodox Jews, referred to as Haradem, into the army. There is strong resistance from the group. Most Israelis see them as parasites since they do not serve in the army yet get financial support from the state for religious studies.

Such divisions have resulted in street demonstrations and caused major disruptions in an already deeply divided society. Netanyahu’s attempts to outrun these problems appear to have come to an end.

Externalizing these problems cannot solve the problems at home, even if they are able to distract people’s attention for a short while.
