US links $1.9 billion in state disaster funds to Israel boycott stance

U.S. states and cities that boycott Israeli companies will be denied federal aid for natural disaster preparedness, the Trump administration has announced, tying routine federal funding to its political stance. The Federal Emergency Management Agency stated in grant notices posted on Friday that states must follow its "terms and conditions." Those conditions require them to certify they will not sever 'commercial relations specifically with Israeli companies' to qualify for funding. The requirement applies to at least $1.9 billion that states rely on to cover search-and-rescue equipment, emergency manager salaries and backup power systems among other expenses, according to 11 agency grant notices reviewed by Reuters. The requirement is the Trump administration's latest effort to use federal funding to promote its views on Israel. Reuters

Former security chiefs speak out: Netanyahu faces internal uprising over Gaza

Report by Amal Shehadeh, English adaptation by Mariella Succar In an unprecedented move in Israel's history, former heads of the country's security and intelligence agencies have united under the banner " end the war", in a campaign against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government. Amiram Levin, former commander of Israel's Northern Command and former deputy director of the Mossad, went beyond issuing warnings, declaring that what Israel is doing in Gaza amounts to genocide. His remarks have taken internal disagreements to the level of outright division, according to several analysts. Following statements by numerous military and security officials describing the Gaza operation "Operation Gideon's Chariots" as a failure, Israeli army Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir warned of the dangers of not convening the security cabinet. He criticized the government's decision to limit Gaza discussions to a small group of ministers and called for what he described as 'strategic clarity,' enabling the army to make decisive moves regarding the war in Gaza. Meanwhile, some security officials believe that the mounting campaigns against the government could pave the way toward ending the war. According to one senior security source, Israel is living a 'self-created illusion,' arguing that a war without a political objective will ultimately end in defeat. These officials warn that decision-makers must now consider the possibility of a mutiny within the military, a development that would significantly deepen Israel's strategic losses.
