The Zionist regime’s failures on multiple fronts

of Israel’s genocide in Gaza and its crimes against the people of Palestine, Lebanon, and Yemen, welcomed the heavy blows inflicted on the Zionist regime by the Iranian Armed Forces and celebrated with joy the defeats suffered by the despised regime.

Operation Al-Aqsa Flood shattered the Zionist regime’s aura of power and authority. Since its establishment in 1948, and following its victories in numerous confrontations and wars with the Arabs and, later, in its battles against Palestinian armed groups, the Zionist regime had cultivated an image of itself as an invincible power. That image has now collapsed, and it is unlikely to be fully restored.

Since the Yom Kippur War, the Zionist regime has never before suffered at least 1,700 human casualties.

7. Intelligence dimension

The failure to detect the occurrence of the large-scale Al-Aqsa Flood operation and the major surprise it suffered in the war with Iran represented a major intelligence failure not only for the Zionist regime’s political establishment, but also for the CIA and other Western intelligence agencies.

8. Foreign policy dimension

Two major objectives, namely “gaining access to superior power and capabilities in the region” and “peace with neighboring countries,” are now completely out of reach. Even the pillar of “alliance with global powers” has been weakened by Russia’s lack of support.

One of the principal casualties of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood was the Abraham Accords. Negotiations to normalize relations between the Zionist regime and the Arab states, particularly Saudi Arabia, were suspended, while the Zionist regime’s crimes have left no room for de-escalation between Israel and the Islamic countries.

Even Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates, which have established diplomatic relations with the Zionist regime, have warned against the escalation of the Zionist regime’s attacks on Gaza.

Israel’s aggression against Iran and other Arab countries has disrupted relations between the Zionist regime and Russia, and ties between the two countries have undergone a qualitative transformation toward divergence. The former Soviet Union and its successor, Russia, have always been among the Zionist regime’s supporters and its upper hand in the region. However, the shift in Russian policy, driven by Moscow’s dissatisfaction with the Zionist regime’s positions in support of Ukraine, will have an impact on the strategic equations of West Asia.

9. The emerging global order

It appears that the world is moving toward a multipolar system of power. Although the United States still retains considerable power, it no longer possesses the supremacy and dominance it once enjoyed.

The occurrence of these operations and the humiliation of the Zionist regime at a time when the most extremist government in its history was in power demonstrate that, should Netanyahu remain in power, the inhabitants of the occupied territories will face serious difficulties.
