Dear Robin,
In today's briefing, I clarify all the misconceptions that the media has portrayed about the state of affairs in Gaza and how phase two of the Trump Peace Plan will be implemented. I look at the perpetual failure of Hamas to disarm and how Israel must operate on the other side of the yellow line in Gaza. I then talk about my own personal confidence in the IDF Chief of Staff and what my impressions are of the newly appointed Mossad Chief. Lastly, I explain that Syria remains an active threat and that the country has not stabled nor is it on a path of normalization.
Here is the recording of the briefing from today.
Our next briefing will be Tuesday at 10 AM Eastern time and 5 PM in Israel. You can sign up here for our next briefing if you have not already done so. If you have already registered for the briefings, then you do not need to register again.
Best,
Brigadier General (res.) Amir Avivi

PM Netanyahu appointed his military secretary, Maj. Gen. Roman Gofman, as the next Mossad director. Gofman is known for his hawkish, initiative-driven doctrine. His term will start in June 2026, after David Barnea completes his five-year term. In a notable 2018 address, he warned of a troubling pattern of IDF generals avoiding employment of ground forces.

Re: WOW, The Media Got It Wrong?
אל המקום אשר...
General Avivi,
Please listen to National Security Expert Yair Ansbacher.
Mass coverup. Yishai Fleisher interviews Dr. Yair Ansbacher.
Ansbacher says that Prime Minister Netanyahu is not good news for Israel's National Security and the policies of his administration policies over the years have led to October 7th..
Time for Netanyahu to take accountability for October 7 as well as for his policies that have empowered Hamas via Qatar leading up to October 7th.
Please listen as well to Rabbi Pesach Wolicki:
Exposed: The Plot REVEALED to save Hamas.
Rabbi Wolicki has very compelling material from Doha that demonstrates that the ISF, the International Stabilization Force in formation will in fact protect and save Hamas and their aliases! The ISF will be ineffective in ensuring that Israel is safe and ensuring Hamas is out of the picture . Even worse, these International players have no intention in making sure Hamas is disarmed, to ensure Israel's safety. The reality is that the ISF will in fact allow Hamas to regroup and rearm under a different garb and the very presence of the ISF will deter Israel from their ability to monitor and defend itself from a Hamas threat cloaked in different garments.
The only counter pressure strong enough for Netanyahu to withstand International pressure from agreeing to the next dangerous stage of Trump's peace deal is the fear that he will lose his seat and the support in his right wing camp. If Netanyahu is opposed by both the Left and the Right he won't be able to survive as Prime Minister.
He walks a tightrope. He needs to choose a position. Will he do the right thing and stand up to President Trump and risk international condemnation or will he endanger Israel, risk losing his base and his job and be replaced as Prime Minister.
Netanyahu now needs to choose between a rock and a hard place and then choose Faith.
The stakes are too dangerous for Israel now to go with Trump and his nefarious alliances and trust the Muslim Brotherhood alliances who promise "Stabilization".
Trump will understand that Netanyahu can not risk alienating his right wing base nor Israel's popular vote who do not want a repeat of October 7th. . Maybe Trump as well will understand that he too has alienated his own Faith based support by aligning with the likes of Qatar, Syria, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the Emerites many of whom are supporters, defenders and funders of the Muslim Brotherhood. Many of these players have literally empowered Hamas. Others are players who simply don't want to fight Hamas just to protect Israel even if they themselves banned Hamas from their own country. They have no problem with Hamas in Gaza adjacent to Israel's borders threatening Israel. The Trump Administration has a double standard. They of course have a right to defend their own borders but Israel needs to rely on an outside "Stabilization Force" to protect its people and borders???
General Avivi,
Please also address the false demonization of the Settlers in the media while pointless, shameful, destructive demolition of Settler Outposts is being conducted under authorization of the Govt Of Israel! These outposts have been built with blood sweat and tears, by courageous Settlers, often unarmed youth, Shepherds and farmers, risking their lives, and their very presence has undeniably aided in providing deterrence, security and protection on the roads and nearby Settlement for all Israeli citizens. These idealistic pioneers have risen to the plate when the IDF was not effective and or failed to deter and protect. Together, Settlement, coupled with a strong IDF is the only realistic, peaceful, and safe solution to address the radical Islamic Jihadist threat facing the Jewish Nation. You yourself Admiral Avivi, raised security concerns of having dangerous hostile Muslim residents within close proximity to Israel's population. Again, Jewish governance, Jewish oversight, Jewish Settlement, coupled with a strong IDF presence is the best deterrence to terror attacks.
Yet, Netanyahu orders evacuation of 14 illegal outposts, removal of Jewish extremists in West Bank - N12
The above article slanders Jewish Settlement in our Ancestral Homeland
The following video is a truer reality and a positive presentation of these so called "Israeli extremists".
MK Limor Sivan Har Melech
*סגנית יו״ר הכנסת, ח״כ לימור סון הר מלך ביקרה אתמול בגבעות הנמצאות בחזית המאבק וכתבה:*
הגעתי לביקור חיזוק בגבעת מבשר שלום בשומרון, בה מתגוררות משפחות ובחורים חלוצי הארץ, ההרס שהיה בגבעה שבוע שעבר ובמקומות נוספים חייב להיפסק, ואנחנו נהיה בכל מקום ונצעק את הדרישה להתיישבות בכל מרחבי יהודה ושומרון.
*ארץ ישראל אומרת תודה, לימור!*
*חדשות הגבעות*
*Deputy Speaker of the Knesset, MK Limor Sivan Har Melech visited the hills that are at the forefront of the struggle yesterday and wrote:*
I arrived for a reinforcement visit to Givat Mevaser Shalom in Samaria, where families and young pioneers of the land live. The destruction that took place on the hill last week and in other places must stop, and we will be everywhere and shout the demand for settlement throughout Judea and Samaria.
*Eretz Israel says thank you, Limor!*
----
Why Admiral Avivi is there blood libeling of Settlers and even more upsetting why are demolitions authorized by the Government of Israel and even the local regional councils? This usually portends a bad deal is in the works as Israel is being pressured to concede.
*בהמשך לתדרוכים אמש על כוונה להרוס 14 גבעות וחוות:*
מאז שעות הבוקר נרשמו האירועים הבאים:
🛑 פשיטת חיילים על גבעת *מבשר שלום* בשומרון ופינוי שכלל ירי רימוני גז כדי להבריח את התושבים שלמדו בכולל במקום שפועל בימי ראשון מדי שבוע.
🛑 פשיטה של שוטרי מג"ב ופינוי *בגבעת גור אריה* סמוך לאדם בבנימין. הקראת שטח צבאי סגור עליו חתם מפקד אוגדת איו"ש קובי הלר לחודש והריסה של המבנים. במקום נכחה ח"כ לימור סון הר מלך שהגיעה לסייר בגבעות.
🛑 לפחות שתי פשיטות על גבעת *מקנה אברהם* במזרח גוש עציון, והצגת צו שטח סגור למשך שנה(!) חתום בידי אלוף פיקוד מרכז אבי בלוט
🛑פשיטה נוספת ודיווח על הרס גם על *גבעת קול מבשר* ליד מכמש בה מתגוררים בחורים
🛑פשיטה של כוחות מג"ב ואנשי המחלקה היהודית בשב"כ על *גבעת צור הראל* בבנימין, בה מתגוררים חמש משפחות עם ילדים. אחד התושבים נעצר על ידי הכוחות.
*חדשות הגבעות*
According to Yair Ansbacher, Smotrich is a political pawn of President Trump and Bibi as a way to hold the expansion of Jewish Settlement in check until the territory is negotiated away in a Bad Deal.
Is it Happenstance that Smotrich put out the following plan following the destruction of the Hilltop Settlements?
*Smotrich Rolls Out 2.7B-Shekel Plan Beyond the Green Line*
Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich unveiled a 2.7B-shekel, five-year plan to expand and strengthen communities beyond the Green Line.
* IDF bases, including the Menashe Brigade HQ and two battalion bases, will relocate to Sa-Nur.
* 660M shekels for 17 new communities.
* 338M for 36 outposts under regulation.
* 434M for infrastructure upgrades.
* Funding also covers access roads, security improvements, and public buildings.
* 225M for a new land-registry system to map 60,000 dunams by 2030.

Is this merely a deceitful way to keep the right wing camp supportive of Netanyahu so that his political position isn't threatened by both the right and the left camp while he is negotiating all kinds of deals that actually endangers the security of Israel?
Dr. Yair Ansbacher seems to think so.
