Analysis of Hamas’ Operations and Israeli Reactions: Interview with Retired Brigadier General Johnny Khalaf

“Spot shot”

Retired Brigadier General Johnny Khalaf said, “When launching the October 7 operation, Hamas had to take into account three points, the first of which was to develop an integrated plan in which it anticipated the details of implementation and what comes after it, the progress of the operation at home, and the repercussions that any Israeli reaction could have.”

In an interview via “Spot Shot” within the “Point of View” program, Brigadier General Khalaf said: “Hamas members were surprised that there was no confrontation and they did not expect that, and they did not expect that they would be able to penetrate to this extent. They advanced a lot without taking into account the Israeli reaction, which considered that its entity Her existence has been affected, so what comes after the operation?”

He pointed out that “Hamas’ entry into the Gaza envelope was an opportunity to unify the arenas that had to be exploited and attack Israel on all fronts, but that did not happen. Hamas cannot take such a step without coordination, and if that was the case, the axis of resistance had to be on the ground, as what The goal of such a battle, if not to break Israel? The arenas should have been united from day one, but it is clear that Hamas has been left to its fate.”

He considered that, “For us as Lebanese, Hezbollah is required not to enter this war and expose Lebanon to danger, especially in the presence of international resolutions, the demarcation of maritime borders, and the land blue line. Likewise, Hezbollah’s intervention so far is not clearly defined, whether it was a military or moral intervention, even if it wanted to enter militarily.” He actually had to use all available means.”

He added, “The situation in southern Lebanon has been stable since 2006, and our sovereignty was not violated until we created problems, opened the front and fired rockets. The situation on the southern front is currently suffering from chaos. All the factions that want to attack Israel do so, and Hezbollah declares that it has nothing to do with it, and this is incorrect”.

He stressed that “this war is not our war, and I am against Hezbollah’s intervention in the battle, and if civilians are attacked, it is the duty of the Lebanese authority and the Lebanese army to respond, not Hezbollah. We have paid dear prices for the Palestinian cause and we are currently with this issue morally, not militarily, from It is unacceptable for someone to enter the battle and implicate all the Lebanese in it.”

He stressed that “the Israelis have not yet spoken of victory. Their plan is to divide Gaza into areas so that they will not be attacked from behind. Today, they are inside Gaza City, entering it through the scorched earth plan. It is certain that many tunnels have been destroyed, and it is likely that the Hamas movement is using Internationally prohibited areas, such as schools, places of worship, hospitals, headquarters, and weapons depots.”

He continued, “The Hamas movement has become in an embarrassing situation. It is no longer what it was at the beginning of the battle. Its victory in the beginning could have been completed if it had obtained the necessary support, especially since its fighters have a cause and are defending their land.”

He explained, “Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced from the beginning of the battle that his goal is to eliminate Hamas, and he is responsible for his words even if he loses 100,000 soldiers. What may hinder him is not his military ability, but rather the international pressure that may be exerted on him by the West or Arabs. Until the goals are achieved, and until there is a cessation of military operations, I encourage Hamas to continue the resistance and use all its capabilities and weapons against the Israelis. What are they waiting for?

Khalaf continued, “We know that if Hamas loses the battle, it will be because Iran and the axis did not intervene. Why didn’t they? Netanyahu will not stop before achieving a political and military victory. He cannot be defeated by Hamas, in addition to all those battleships that aim to support him morally and to They would be ready for any Iranian intervention, but if Iran had the intention of opening the arenas, it would have done so, because the battleships were not there in the first week.”

He revealed, “After major battles, settlements take place, and everyone sits at the table. Iran may be among the participants in the settlement to obtain its share of the Gaza Sea’s wealth, which is estimated at one trillion cubic meters of oil and gas. The decisions of the Arab summit may constitute the beginning of a solution, especially since they were approved in the presence of Iranian President Ibrahim.” President, as Iran cannot remain alone, and it is currently moving slowly towards the Arab countries, and not entering the axis of resistance in this war is evidence of a new plan for him within the Middle East.”

Brigadier General Khalaf concluded by wishing, “We, as Lebanese, will distance ourselves from this war. We have long defended the Palestinian cause, but today we are unable to get involved in a war that might spread within our regions and remind us of the devastation of the 2006 war.”
