Gid\u00e9on L\u00e9vy<\/a> dans le m\u00eame journal, mesure le foss\u00e9 que creuse cette guerre rat\u00e9e dans le monde politique isra\u00e9lien. Les deux hommes repr\u00e9sentent certes les deux p\u00f4les oppos\u00e9s, et l’opinion de L\u00e9vy certainement tr\u00e8s majoritaire jusqu’ici. Mais la situation politique isra\u00e9lienne va devenir fluide et la tendance L\u00e9vy peut s’en trouver renforc\u00e9e. Une seule prospective peut \u00eatre tenue pour probable : cette polarisation repr\u00e9sent\u00e9e par Arens et L\u00e9vy pr\u00e9figure l’\u00e9volution du monde politique isra\u00e9lien. Au contraire des victoires, les d\u00e9faites, ou leur \u00e9quivalent psychologique, suscitent l’amertume, l’hostilit\u00e9, la manuvre et la discorde. Ce d\u00e9veloppement est d’autant plus probable qu’Isra\u00ebl ne conna\u00eet aujourd’hui aucune personnalit\u00e9 forte capable de susciter un rassemblement ; aucune des tendances, et notamment le parti de la guerre, n’est capable d’avancer des propositions s\u00e9duisantes pour la majorit\u00e9. Isra\u00ebl entre dans une crise politique grave.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tEn attendant, voici la fureur d’Arens :<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\t\u00ab An almost audible sigh of relief could be heard from the Prime Minister’s Office as the negotiations that were supposed to lead to a cease-fire began at the UN. The appropriate rhetoric has already started flying. So what if the whole world sees this diplomatic arrangement which Israel agreed to while it was still receiving a daily dose of Hezbollah rockets as a defeat suffered by Israel at the hands of a few thousand Hezbollah fighters? So what if nobody believes that an "emboldened" UNIFIL force will disarm Hezbollah, and that Hezbollah with thousands of rockets still in its arsenal and truly emboldened by this month’s success against the mighty Israel Defense Forces, will now become a partner for peace? Does a cease-fire that will avoid further casualties among the IDF’s soldiers not outweigh these concerns over future events?<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t()<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\t\u00bb The long-term implications of an Israeli agreement to a UN brokered cease-fire at this time are obvious. Israel’s enemies, and they are many, will conclude that Israel does not have the stamina for an extended encounter with terrorism. You do not need tanks and aircraft to defeat Israel – a few thousand rockets are enough. Katyushas today and Qassams tomorrow. Don’t let Olmert, Peretz and Livni fool you: These rockets will keep coming after Israel is seen as not only punished but also defeated in this month-long war.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bb Yesterday is dead and tomorrow’s out of sight, Dean Martin used to sing. Olmert may be humming this song as he agrees to the UN cease-fire resolution, and Peretz and Livni can sing the refrain let the devil take tomorrow. But tomorrow will come much sooner than they expect. And it will find Israel with nothing left of its deterrent capability that used to keep its enemies at bay. The war, which according to our leaders was supposed to restore Israel’s deterrent posture, has within one month succeeded in destroying it. That message will not be lost on Hamas, the Syrians and the Iranians, and possibly even some of our Arab neighbors who for many years had forsworn belligerence against Israel.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bb The task facing Israel now is to restore its deterrent posture and prepare for the attacks that are sure to come. But not with this leadership. They have exhausted whatever little credit they had when they were voted into office<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
