FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Major General Gadi Eizenkot will be appointed as the 21st chief of staff of the Israeli military, Israeli officials say.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and minister of military affairs Moshe Ya’alon reportedly agreed to name the military’s incumbent deputy chief of staff next chief of staff through a statement on Saturday.
Israeli military officials speaking on condition of anonymity said on Friday that Eizenkot, 54, will succeed General Benny Gantz whose tenure will end on February 15.
Eizenkot has held several key positions over the past three decades, including the military’s head of operations during the Second Lebanon War, its West Bank commander and military secretary to former Prime Minister Ehud Barak.
Eizenkot is also known as one of the outspoken opponents of Israel’s war against Iran without coordination with the US.
Four years ago, at the height of controversies over Israel’s plan to attack Iran’s nuclear facilities, Eizenkot wrote a letter to Netanyahu in which he fiercely expressed opposition to any war against Tehran, warning that such a move will drag Israel into a lengthy war with the Islamic Republic and Hezbollah and harm Tel Aviv’s ties with Washington.
