White House officials are concerned that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could initiate a full-blown war against the Hezbollah terror group in Lebanon in order to save his own political career, according to a Sunday report.
“If the Gaza war ends tomorrow, Netanyahu’s political career will end with it, incentivizing him to broaden the conflict,” anonymous US officials told The Washington Post.
Netanyahu has dipped sharply in opinion polls since the war with Hamas began, with the public evidently attributing to him a significant portion of the blame for the failures that enabled the terror group’s October 7 massacres.

“The prime minister will continue to take the necessary steps to secure Israel and its future,” a senior Israeli government official responded to the US outlet when asked if Netanyahu’s political calculations are driving his military decisions.
Multiple senior Israeli leaders have repeatedly said Hezbollah must be driven away from the Israel-Lebanon border, in accordance with UN Security Council Resolution 1701 from 2006, vowing that if this isn’t achieved via diplomacy it will be done militarily.

The Israeli government is having enormous fights. Netanyahu's power is cracking in real time.
@IngeniousP4rtisanRepublican4mos4MO
Netanyahu is botching the war. Time to sack him
@SincereMandat3Democrat4mos4MO
Just from a purely horse race standpoint, Biden mortgaging his political future to Benjamin Netanyahu demonstrates such terrible judgment
@KindheartedParrotRepublican4mos4MO
Did Benjamin Netanyahu use Epstein to entrap his politicalopponents?
@9HXLQ8H4mos4MO
This is important because they are essentially waging war on Hezbollah for basically no reason. And That is messed up.
@9HXHRGZ4mos4MO
Since the topic is about the potential start of a war I think that is most important.
@9HXH8W24mos4MO
I don't care about left and right, I wish I could be left out.
To commit a bad action just to protect yourself or make yourself look good is wrong.
@9HXCJVPConstitution4mos4MO
If war breaks out I don’t want it to become a big war.
@9HX9VJR4mos4MO
News should promote understanding and educated discussion. News should refrain from encouraging violence.
@9HX9CYDIndependent4mos4MO
Israel is in the right to fight extremists

War should never be for political gain as it harms so many lives
@9HX65F2Independent4mos4MO
While terrorist should be defeated it should never be for political gain.

@9HXHZMZ4mos4MO
War is an intense direction to turn to for political gain.
@9HX4B6W4mos4MO
It doesn't matter to argue and make war for things that are not worth it.
