A letter threatening Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was left on his brother's grave on "Mount Herzl" in occupied Al-Quds, where the Israeli occupation army buries its dead.

The letter read: “What’s happening Yoni, you hero? What’s going on up there? I was asked to inform your brother, Pee-Pee Netanyahu, that he has a little or a lot going for him, but it’s over."

Moreover, the letter, as reported by Israeli media, appeared to reference Netanyhu's birthdate as it read: “From here, Mt. Herzl, this sanctified place, the clock is ticking backward, until [October 13-14] on which your brother, the son of a bitch, thinks he’ll reach age 74,” adding, “Let it be clear that this is a threat of the first order.”

Next to that last statement, the writer further added: “red alert level” in English and drew a smiley face before saying: “Bibi, you’re no better than [Ariel] Sharon.”

It is worth noting that Sharon is a former Israeli Prime Minister who died after eight years in a coma due to a stroke.

The letter set a number of missions, among which were re-conquering the Gaza Strip and returning “the body of my counselor, Hadar Goldin, and the rest of the captives,” according to Israeli media.

“Fuck you, you lazy whore,” was the final line of the letter, and it was significantly written in English.

It is important to note that in the past year, the Israeli divide has been deepening as the occupation government is divided over judicial reform leading to protests and riots that remain ongoing, as well as over how to regain lost deterrence as the Palestinian Resistance in Gaza and across the West Bank proved very capable.

Debacle over launching major West Bank op widens divide in 'Israel'

The demands of lawmakers and officials within the Israeli security establishment have shown significant differences on whether a massive military operation will be executed, and media reports on the matter have mirrored conflicting stances within the establishment earlier on June 23.

Israeli Channel 12 news proclaimed that "Israel was being brought closer to a larger operation in the Jenin area.” Concurrently, Channel 13 news reputed that Security Minister Yoav Gallant said in closed meetings that "there was currently no need for an operation.”

Meanwhile, the Kan public broadcaster said, “The establishment understands that Israel is approaching a limited operation in Nablus and Jenin.”

Haaretz reported that there has been increasing pressure from the government and settlement leaders to launch a large-scale operation in the immediate past, but the Israeli army has been resisting it.

Such reports further showcased a deeply-divided "Israel" and its inability to take a unified stance as some Israeli senior lawmakers, and officials, in addition to settler leaders demand conducting a "limited" operation in the occupied northern West Bank, while others demand a "larger" operation, while others demand a halt to operations.
