The escalation of the conflict in the Middle East with the counteroffensive by the Israeli Army, which is expected to occupy the Gaza Strip in response to the Hamas terrorist attack on the 7th, gained global reach with pro-Israel speeches on one side and on the other, anti-Semitic offenses and the encouragement of destruction of the State founded in 1948 after the Second World War.
According to the Israeli ambassador to Brazil, Daniel ZonshineIsraeli reservists spread across the world are being called up to fight the terrorist group, responsible for thousands of deaths and kidnappings after the invasion of Jewish territory.
“Israelis who are here in Brazil or other countries, on vacation or visiting their families, were called up by the army. They are now looking for a way to get to Israel to be with friends and family, and among them are also reservists from the Israeli labor forces. We will help them reach Israel, as we are facing a campaign that is not easy. A campaign to discourage Hamas from repeating this operation, so to speak. We have to carry out an action that they will not forget for a long time”, says the ambassador in an interview with Gazeta do Povo.
Despite the hostilities faced by the Israelis, Zonshine reports that Volunteers seek out the Embassy to reinforce the Army’s front lines in the Gaza Strip, but he believes that there is no need, at the moment, to incorporate foreigners into the Army, as occurred on both sides in the Ukrainian War. “I don’t think that’s going to happen. I hope we don’t have a need for this, but we noticed a lot of people volunteering who want to help Israel in any way possible. The phones haven’t stopped ringing even now,” he said.
“The support that the Israeli forces are receiving is very strong, but so far it is not in terms of personnel. So far, we have only received arms supplies from the United States to supply our arsenals”, adds the ambassador.
Asked about the support of foreign fightersforeign guerrillas, to the terrorist group Hamas, as happened during the actions of the Islamic State, he commented that the Combatants must face many difficulties to reach the conflict area in the Gaza Strip. “If anyone wants to get there, they will have to enter through Egypt. Trying to get to the Gaza Strip now I think is crazy. I think it’s something people with a somewhat problematic mind do.”, he assesses.
In interview with Gazeta do Povo YouTube channelthe instructor at the Army Command and General Staff School (Eceme), Major Frederico Chaves Salóes, analyzes that unmet collective desires generate popular dissatisfaction, which result in “intense unmet expectations”, which are used by terrorist propaganda to attract volunteers , regardless of nationality or ideology.
“These psychological frustrations can and have been used, as we have seen by both Al Qaeda and the Islamic State, to manipulate the people they will support financially or the more ‘courageous’ people who will take action. We are talking about people who have no ideological connection but who see in Hamas, in the cause of Hamas, an identification, as their expectations were not met by the State where they reside”, he explains.
