Gallant last week rejected the idea of Israel permanently occupying the Gaza Strip and said he would “not agree to the establishment of Israeli military rule in Gaza.”
The Times of Israel transcribed most of the video:
“Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the video is for you. We reservist soldiers do not intend to hand the keys over to any Palestinian authority. We do not intend to give the keys to Gaza to any entity — Hamas, Fatah or any other Arab entity. Reservist soldiers are behind you and we want to win,” the soldier said, speaking from what appears to be a ruined building in Gaza.
“We have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you have 100,000 reservist soldiers that are ready to give their lives for the people of Israel. Ready to die. We lost everything, we lost our family life, we lost our livelihoods and we have nowhere to go. We will stay here, until the end. Until the victory,” the reservist soldier states.
“Yoav Gallant, you can’t win the war. Quit. You can’t win this war. You can’t command us,” the reservist says.
The soldier vowed to refuse Gallant’s orders and asserted that soldiers will only listen to Netanyahu. He threatened that the 100,000 reservist soldiers would station themselves at the border and not move, and call on citizens of Israel to join them there if the government steps back from the goal of completely eliminating Hamas.
“Think really well who you leave the keys to after this. We want victory. Our brothers and sisters did not die for nothing, weren’t raped for nothing, and were not slaughtered in their beds for nothing,” he said, referring to the IDF casualties in Gaza and the atrocities of Hamas’s October 7 massacre.
It’s becoming clearer by the day that Israel is losing the war.
US Gen. C.Q. Brown last week even “chided” Israel for losing ground to Hamas.
As Politico reports:
The Pentagon’s top general offered a rare critique of Israel’s war strategy on Monday, warning Israeli troops’ failure to hold ground they had taken from Hamas in northern Gaza could have long-term effects.
