Brig. Gen. Avivi: Global Coalition Needed To Address Iranian Threat
In a recent interview with The Media Line’s Felice Friedson, Brig. Gen. (res.) Amir Avivi praised Israel’s swift military achievements in Lebanon, where they dismantled Hezbollah leadership in just seven days. Avivi emphasized that these bold military successes could serve as a blueprint for addressing the larger threat posed by Iran, but he stressed that such an operation would require the support of a global coalition, particularly led by the US. Avivi argued that a major airstrike on Iran could neutralize its capabilities within days, safeguarding the entire Western world from the threat of a nuclear Iran.

He attributed Israel’s success against Hezbollah to years of extensive planning and preparation, which resulted in the decimation of Hezbollah’s command structure, including the assassination of leader Hassan Nasrallah.

As the war in Gaza continues, Avivi highlighted Israel’s ongoing efforts to dismantle Hamas and return the hostages still held in Gaza. He believes that Israel’s decisive actions in the north will have a significant impact on the southern front as well.
