Trump urged to halt Gaza conflict by ex-Israeli leaders in letter
Former Israeli Security Officials Urge Trump to End Gaza Conflict
In a significant move, more than 600 former senior Israeli security officials, including former heads of Mossad and Shin Bet, have written an open letter to US President Donald Trump, urging him to pressure Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end the ongoing war in Gaza.
The conflict, which has been raging since October 2023, has resulted in over 60,000 Palestinian deaths. The former officials argue that Hamas no longer poses a strategic threat to Israel, and that continuing the war is counterproductive.
The letter, which is available on a specific website with a Google news channel, represents a significant voice from former high-ranking defense and intelligence experts expressing opposition to the continued war. The officials include former chiefs of Israel’s Mossad and Shin Bet agencies, as well as other senior security figures.
The former officials are calling on Trump to compel Netanyahu to stop the military operations in Gaza. They emphasize that this would be in Israel's strategic interest as well as for regional stability. The letter is both a call to end immediate hostilities and a push towards a broader reconsideration of Israel’s policy and approach in Gaza.
While Trump reportedly does not oppose Netanyahu’s plans for a full Gaza occupation, these former officials are advocating for a cessation of the war through US diplomatic intervention. This appeal comes amidst broader international calls and discussions about the humanitarian and geopolitical impacts of the Gaza conflict.
