Little U.S. Pressure and More Hezbollah Fire Enable Netanyahu's Vision of Endless War While Hezbollah's resistance in Lebanon has so far been limited, the organization struck an IDF base in central Israel, killing four Israeli soldiers and wounding dozens ¦ With increased political security for Netanyahu and little pressure from the U.S. to end the Lebanon incursion, Israel's investment in the war is deepening On the political front, the coalition is now trying to pass a law that would ensure its control over whatever commission of inquiry investigates the failures before and during the war and keep Supreme Court justices out of it. As for what is happening in the IDF, Netanyahu and his associates, along with the religious right, have once again resumed meddling in the appointment of major generals. This is being done with an increasing eye on the appointment of the next IDF chief of staff, as well as in an attempt to increase their political foothold in the General Staff and ensure the entry of a new generation of officers.
