The Israeli ambassador has vowed to better communicate his nation’s perspective on being at war. This would help raise awareness and increase sympathy to Israel’s cause.
The comment by Israeli ambassador Amir Maimon that neither he nor his country has done enough to provide Australians with a better understanding of the impact of war in Gaza on daily life in Israel is a surprisingly frank and belated admission..
Hamas’ horrific raid on Israel on October 7, 2023, has so far led to the loss of more than 50,000 Palestinian, Lebanese and Israeli lives and shaken up some of the established order. Israel’s successful degradation of Hezbollah spurred Syrian rebels to begin their offensive last November, the same day as a ceasefire came into effect in the Lebanon conflict.
He struggled to understand why it was so difficult for the international community as a whole to support Israel’s “just” cause in pursuing war against Hamas, adding there was no prospect of a two-state solution until Hamas was removed from Gaza.
