Bennett breaks ranks Israeli starvation tactics in Gaza turning US against Tel Aviv
Published August 5th, 2025 - 11:14 GMT "Among many Americans, Israel is increasingly perceived as a burden to the United States," Bennett stated, criticizing the Israeli government's failure to grasp the scale of the public relations disaster. The total death toll from Israeli military actions since October 2023 now stands at 61,020, with more than 150,671 injured. ALBAWABA- In a striking admission, former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has warned that Israel's global reputation, particularly in the United States, is rapidly deteriorating. Speaking out amid mounting criticism of Israel's war in Gaza, Bennett said the country's standing in the U.S. is 'collapsing,' and that Israel is increasingly viewed as a 'pariah state.' Bennett pointed out that Israel has effectively lost the support of the Democratic Party and is beginning to lose the once-reliable backing of the Republican Party. He added that Israel's starvation policy in Gaza has taken on 'enormous proportions' and is now seen by much of the American public and key influencers as a grim and undeniable reality. 🚩אזעקת אמת🚩*מעמד ישראל בארה״ב בקריסה*אני מסיים עשרה ימים בארה״ב: בניו יורק, בוושינגטון די.סי, ובמקומות נוספים. כמי שהתגורר כאן, עשה כאן עסקים, פעל כאן בהסברה למען ישראל משך שנים, אני יכול לקבוע: המעמד של ישראל מעולם לא היה גרוע כל כך. ישראל הולכת ומתבססת כאן כמדינה… — Naftali Bennett נפתלי בנט (@naftalibennett) August 5, 2025 "Among many Americans, Israel is increasingly perceived as a burden to the United States," Bennett stated, criticizing the Israeli government's failure to grasp the scale of the public relations disaster. 'We don't have a proper media strategy, and there are no clear answers for the growing number of questions being asked. The careless gossip of some of Netanyahu's ministers is deeply damaging and will haunt our soldiers as they travel the world.' These comments come as the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza deepens. According to the Gaza Health Ministry, eight more Palestinians, including a child, have died from starvation and malnutrition in the past 24 hours. The total number of deaths attributed to starvation since October 7, 2023, has now reached 188, including 94 children. In the same period, Israeli military assaults have killed 52 Palestinians and injured 352 others. The total death toll from Israeli military actions since October 2023 now stands at 61,020, with more than 150,671 injured. Since the resumption of Israeli hostilities in March 2025 alone, 9,519 Palestinians have been killed and 38,630 wounded. International criticism continues to mount. The British Consulate in Jerusalem expressed sorrow over the killing of Palestinian human rights activist Odeh al-Hadalin by settlers in the West Bank, calling for the immediate return of his body for a proper burial. 'Settler violence in the West Bank cannot go unchecked. Impunity must end,' the consulate said in a statement. Meanwhile, the European Commission has described the situation in Gaza as 'intolerable,' reiterating its demand that Israel allow urgent humanitarian aid into the besieged territory. © 2000 - 2025 Al Bawaba (
