Gadi Eisenkot dismisses two-state solution ahead of Israeli elections

Gadi Eisenkot, a former Chief of Staff and leading opposition candidate for the upcoming October 27 elections, has expressed skepticism regarding a political solution to the Palestinian conflict. During a campaign event, Eisenkot described the two-state solution as a 'bitter error' and suggested that any belief in an imminent peace agreement is misguided due to the deep religious-national nature of the conflict.

The discourse in Israeli politics appears to have shifted away from peace negotiations, focusing instead on security and military strength. Analysts note that the Palestinian issue is increasingly being addressed through a security lens rather than as a diplomatic opportunity, reflecting a broader rightward shift in the country's political landscape.
