The ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas was a “political decision” for Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, Israeli political commentator Dr. Ori Goldberg told FRANCE 24. “He (Netanyahu) understands two things: one is that Israel has absolutely nowhere else to go, and its condition is beginning to deteriorate both externally and internally, but also I think he understands that there has been a subtle shift in Israeli public opinion over the past several weeks … his future voters are tired of the war and want it to end”, Goldberg said.
