"I am one of those who always believe and say that Israel is not considering and will not enter Rafah," says Dr. Sobhi Asila, editor-in-chief of the "Israeli Elections" magazine and head of the Palestine and Israel Studies program at the Al-Ahram Center for Political and Strategic Studies, located in Egypt. He claims: She threatens to do so and Benjamin Netanyahu wants to use this card, because he is aware that entering Rafah would be a disaster by any measure."
Dr. Asila adds: "Even if he formulates a plan – the US will continue to oppose it, because it is well aware that there is no possible plan that can be used to avoid a humanitarian disaster, while Israel cannot provoke a conversation about another humanitarian disaster. Israel has exhausted all attempts The support from the USA that was intended to save it from all the massacres and disasters that befell the Gaza Strip."
"Israel's image is at a low point internationally and it does not need any more action, especially against the background of the complete lack of trust in Binyamin Netanyahu. No one is promising and no one is convincing the US or the international community or that Binyamin Netanyahu's performance in Rafah will be different from his performance in the south and the north , when the task was easier than in Rafah," he explains.
"The lack of trust and uncertainty regarding Benjamin Netanyahu's performance is in itself the main deterrent and obstacle to granting the possibility or permission to enter Rafah. He is simply threatening. Therefore, everyone strives to avoid this, because the madness that grips Benjamin Netanyahu is enough to cause this," he concluded Dr. Asila.
