Eyal Zamir is not just Israel\u2019s new Chief of General Staff<\/strong>. He is the architect of a military doctrine rooted in religious nationalism, regional escalation, and industrial militarization \u2014 a man whose rise to power is a warning, not a formality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


38 Years of Military Aggression
<\/strong>Born in 1966, Zamir has spent nearly four decades inside the Israeli military machine. His r\u00e9sum\u00e9 reads like a roadmap of destruction: from leading armored divisions in Lebanon and Gaza, to commanding during brutal operations such as Protective Edge and Guardian of the Walls, to managing Israel\u2019s southern front where he oversaw bombing campaigns, demolitions, and population control in the occupied territories.
His service was celebrated with medals. But the real cost? Thousands of dead civilians, flattened neighborhoods, and a hardened doctrine of total military domination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


A Man of Ideology, Not Just Strategy
<\/strong>Zamir is deeply ideological. He doesn’t just believe in Israel’s military power \u2014 he believes in its divine justification.
Upon his appointment as Chief of Staff, he and his sons prayed at the Western Wall, placed a mezuzah in his military office, and recited Psalms asking for strength to protect the “Promised Land.” His speeches invoke biblical references. His worldview fuses state and scripture.
This isn\u2019t tradition. It\u2019s zealotry in uniform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Hostility as Policy
<\/strong>Zamir has called for direct assassinations of Iranian generals, has warned that 2025 will be a year of war, and has outlined long-term strategies to suppress Iranian influence in Syria, Lebanon, and Iraq.
He champions preemptive violence. During his leadership, Israel has continued its doctrine of targeted killings, civilian bombardments, and collective punishment \u2014 policies he has helped craft and justify through both military channels and think tanks in the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


War Economy Partnered with U.S. Billions
<\/strong>As Director General of the Ministry of Defense, Zamir signed billion-shekel contracts with Elbit Systems to manufacture bombs and expand Israel\u2019s domestic war industry. He also secured a $5.2 billion weapons deal with the U.S., focusing on air defense systems and laser weapons.
He\u2019s more than a soldier \u2014 he\u2019s a broker of war.
Zamir has pushed to reduce dependence on imports by investing in national weapons production \u2014 turning Israel\u2019s economy into a full-spectrum engine of militarism.

A Military Family Bound by Blood and Power
<\/strong>Zamir\u2019s entire family is embedded in the military structure:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
