The Israeli Army Is Facing Its Biggest Refusal Crisis in Decades Published April 11, 2025 No one can state precise numbers. No political party or leader calls for it explicitly. But anyone who has spent time at anti-government protests or on Hebrew-language social media in recent weeks knows it to be true: it is becoming increasingly legitimate to refuse to report for military service in Israel — and not only among the radical left.

↗ Jakkoli je plošný odsun palestinského obyvatelstva Pásma Gazy nejspíše neproveditelný, sama snaha o něj povede pravděpodobně k ještě horším zločinům, než jaké byly doposud spáchány — ke vzniku koncentračních táborů, k systematickému ničení celé enklávy i k přímému vyhlazování.

Due settimane fa il giornalista di destra israeliano Yinon Magal ha scritto su X: “Questa volta l’esercito israeliano intende evacuare tutti gli abitanti della Striscia di Gaza in una nuova zona umanitaria che sarà predisposta per una permanenza a lungo termine, sarà recintata, e tutti quelli che ci entrano saranno controllati per verificare che non siano terroristi.

The IDF will not allow a rogue population to refuse evacuation this time. Anyone remaining outside the humanitarian zone will be implicated.

Israel's renewed war on Gaza, which on Tuesday killed more than 400 Palestinians, including over 100 children, is perhaps the most blatant politically motivated Israeli military move since the beginning of the conflict. Meanwhile, expulsion orders are forcibly displacing thousands of Palestinians across Gaza once again.

At the end of October 2023, Local Call published the full text of a plan formulated by Gila Gamliel, then Israel’s minister of intelligence, for the “evacuation of the civilian population from Gaza to Sinai”. The plan received extensive coverage around the world and was viewed as proof that Israel's real goal in its war in Gaza - at that time still in the aerial bombing phase before the ground invasion - was not to “eliminate Hamas” but to expel the Palestinians from Gaza.
