Since 1948, in none of the parliamentary elections in Israel, has the presence of Israeli generals been as small as in the parliamentary elections scheduled during 23 months.
In the contest that has been going on for two years, the names of none of these military figures, namely “Moshe Ya’alon” and “Gabi Ashkenazi” and even Gantz, who is known in Israel as a traitorous friend, do not appear in the electoral lists.
This time, it is the rivalry between the corrupt politician (Benjamin Netanyahu) who, in the current situation of instability, sees an opportunity to stay in office and, if he cannot form a government according to his own criteria, prefers the fifth election.
Another opponent in this election is a politician who left the Likud party, who did not get a chance to become prime minister in this party, so he decided to run in the elections by forming a political list. He has the same thoughts as his corrupt rival.
The three electoral lists are vying for seats in the Knesset (Parliament), with no trace of army generals at the top of any of these lists, or even in subsequent positions.
In the past, Zionist politicians who did not reach high positions in the regime’s army sought the help of generals to gain the support of those sections of the public who trusted military institutions. But now it seems that the views and morale of the Zionist regime’s voters have changed and they no longer look at military institutions with respect.

In Israel, everyone believes that in the last two years, Benjamin Netanyahu has been able to deceive the generals and play them and lead them to deals that he himself was the only winner and ousted them from their original position.
Sometimes it goes deeper into the political situation of the Zionist regime, which shows that after Ariel Sharon, the era of generals in this regime is over because, after him, the voters did not find the person they wanted to consider victorious.
According to the Zionists, this victorious person has many conditions that many generals who decided to enter the political arena after Sharon or in the last two decades did not have.
In the Israeli occupation regime, there is no longer any belief in a victorious military commander, because the Israeli army has not won all the battles it has fought over the past three decades, and the generals who took over military affairs in Israel after 2000 did not win either against the defenseless Palestinians during the Second Intifada, or against the Lebanese resistance in 2006, or against the Gaza Strip during the four wars.
On the contrary, the strength of the Lebanese resistance increased in the north and the strength of the Palestinian resistance in the south. Hence, the new generation of Israel can no longer be proud of any real victory, and no longer has knowledge of terms related to deterrence and invincible army, and becomes familiar with new terms such as restoring the glory of deterrence and strengthening the internal front.
As a result, it is natural for army generals not to run in the elections and for a corrupt person with a history full of lies and deception to run in the elections.
Intellectual changes in societies take decades, but these changes in the occupying Israeli regime have happened sooner than that because this society is always confused and unable to achieve what it wants.
