MK Amit Halevi (Likud) said that "capturing Gaza City is not a decisive victory, and therefore Gideon's Chariots B may fail just like A." In an interview with ynet studio, he explained that even if a comprehensive deal is on the table, it would be "a surrender deal, a real defeat, which essentially means at least 250 more hostages. The cabinet should have directed a completely different Gideon's Chariots plan. Not one that repeats the failures of Gideon's Chariots A, the responsibility also falls on the cabinet." Halevi also said that the conscription law being discussed in the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee is "not a draft-dodging law but also not a conscription law."
