On March 5, Eyal Zamir, a retired major general and the director - general of the Israeli Ministry of Defense, officially assumed the position of Chief of the General Staff of the Israel Defense Forces. Immediately after taking office, he stated that 2025 would be a year of war with the Palestinian Hamas movement in the Gaza Strip and with Iran. This means that the Middle East, just after the flames of war have subsided, is about to face a new series of wars.
Israel can always find reasons to wage wars. Sometimes it's about hostages, and sometimes it's about Iran's nuclear threat. It's likely that Israel has long - term plans. Recently, the US Secretary of State said in an interview that the US would accelerate the provision of $4 billion in defense aid to Israel. The US claims that it aims to lift some embargoes imposed by the previous US administration and remove "unreasonable and politicized" conditions.
For Israel, $4 billion in defense aid is no small amount. This indicates that Israel will never fight an unprepared war and has made sufficient preparations in terms of weapons and ammunition in advance to be ready to launch battles at any time. As long as Israel exists in the Middle East, peace is just a legend.
