Israeli Media Warns Political Isolation Threatens Survival of Zionist Entity
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Israel’s growing international isolation is increasingly described as an existential threat, with its economy, military capabilities, and global standing under strain, according to a Monday report by the Hebrew-language daily Maariv.
Maariv reported that Israel is sliding into deep political isolation, which now endangers its economy, culture, sports, and even its weapons industry.
According to the paper, Israeli institutions convened a meeting on Monday to discuss the issue, including the disclosure of classified information tied to the weakening of the Israeli army’s operational capacity.
The session was led by Knesset member Moshe Kinley of the Peace Party and the Subcommittee on Foreign Policy and Propaganda. The debate, Maariv noted, was held under a cloud of pessimism, with warnings that some discussions could turn secret if sensitive details about Israel’s security apparatus were exposed.
The report said political isolation now threatens every sector. Israel’s economy is damaged. Its participation in the Eurovision contest is uncertain. Israeli sports face possible suspension from international events.
Most alarming, however, is the exposure of the military’s vulnerability. Maariv admitted that military procurement is under threat, and that the situation is “a reality.” Many countries have already halted arms sales to Israel, including critical weapons systems.
Without these supplies, Israel’s army could face a severe blow to its combat capability, directly undermining the entity’s security.
The damage extends beyond the military. Israel’s economy, culture, and scientific research are being hit, with losses projected in the billions of dollars.
Sources within Israel’s own security and intelligence structures described the situation as reaching a “critical stage” that could ultimately affect the future of the regime itself.
The threat does not come from long-standing adversaries, Maariv said, but from cooling relations with supposed allies such as Germany.
The meeting, the paper concluded, was an attempt to grapple with a bigger question: why traditional allies are turning away from Israel, and what — beyond accusations of anti-Semitism — the regime can do to counter the tide of isolation threatening its survival.
