Inside Israel, there is no room for any question marks or doubts about this war," says journalist Gideon Levy, a columnist for Haaretz and a member of the newspaper's editorial board. He says war fever has taken over the country, with polls showing 93% support for the U.S.-Israeli war in Iran, Lebanon and beyond - at least among the Jewish public. Israel is doing as much as it can," he says. As long as the American support is so massive, so blind and so automatic, this will go on."

Levy also criticizes Israel's military censorship system that strictly limits publishing information about war damage and other material deemed to be counter to national security. He says much of it is driven by self-censorship by a press that sees itself as an agency of the government and of the military establishment, and this is very worrying."
