Let's be clear: A diplomatic deal before defeating the enemy means managing the threat while leaving the enemy and its capabilities intact with a reasonable chance of recovery. A decisive victory means eliminating the enemy and its capabilities so they no longer exist. A diplomatic arrangement relies on others, including the enemy, to honor agreements (whether paper documents or UN resolutions). A decisive victory means relying on ourselves for our security and existence, while continuously acting to prevent the enemy from recovering.
Voices calling for "arrangements" have been heard since the beginning of this war. Their basic assumption is that Israel cannot face threats alone. In their view, Israel should be protected but not too strong, maintaining constant dependence on the Americans who can impose their worldview and diplomatic arrangements.

In Israel, there exists a social circle among the veteran elite, which is demographically shrinking, watching their ideas for a diplomatic solution (two states "not" for two peoples) fade away. Beyond their dominance in legal and academic power centers, American pressure remains their lever of influence on the government. This is achieved by shaping consciousness that we cannot exist if we "defy" the Americans.
This perception is so strong it has become an axiomatic truth requiring no proof. In 67 BCE, Queen Shlomzion passed away, and the kingdom was torn between two camps led by her sons Hyrcanus and Aristobulus. They asked Roman General Gnaeus Pompey to judge between them, and he exploited the situation and invaded Jerusalem in 63 BCE. Thus we lost our independence.

An arrangement in Lebanon would resemble Resolution 1701 that only strengthened Hezbollah. Foreign forces in Lebanon and Gaza would operate similarly to the farce called UNIFIL, the UN peacekeeping forces in Lebanon, under whose watch Hezbollah built a terror empire. Those advocating for arrangements before defeating the enemy, hope this will lead to establishing a Palestinian state in the mountain ridge, facing our population centers, as if we learned nothing from the reckless adventure of disengagement from Gaza.
Our forces fight with courage and dedication. Those on the ground clearly understand the existential danger looming over us and are ready to sacrifice for our future. The victory must therefore be clear not just for us and commentators, but primarily in the enemy's consciousness and that they cannot rise again, have no military or governmental power, and their people will die the moment they dare raise their heads against us. We must not return to the October 6 policy where we talked and threatened, but when Hamas or Hezbollah violated agreements, we did nothing. Rudy Giuliani achieved security in New York by enforcing even the smallest violations against crime organizations.

Still, the key to removing threats above us is defeating the Iranian axis. Everyone understands this; those preaching that we cannot, express the paradigm that brought us to the brink on October 7. But those with historical antennas and geopolitical vision freed from known conditions, see and understand that we are at a rare historical point where we can free the Middle East, from the death grip of the idol-worshiping regime in Tehran.
We will achieve this not only through bombings like we've seen, which we hope will continue against the ayatollah regime's nuclear facilities. The important thing is to give courage to the large Iranian population that hates the regime, to bring about its fall. The same applies to Lebanese citizens who hate Hezbollah. Totalitarian regimes fall when their subjects stop fearing them, then the masses rise up and the walls crumble. The Revolutionary Guards protect the Iranian regime. We must strike them and their facilities to bring about their collapse, similar to the collapse of Hezbollah's senior command. This will free Iranian citizens to act after more than 40 years of oppression. It will also free the Lebanese.
Global evil identifies confusion and weakness from Western civilization, Judeo-Christian, and therefore raises its head believing it can defeat the West. The world's eyes are upon us at this historic moment as we face representatives of global evil. It's important to rise to the occasion.
