İsrail’in Gazze’de Güç Kullanımı ve İcra Ettiği Askeri Operasyonlar

Abstract

Kurulduğu ilk günden günümüze siyasi emelleri çerçevesinde yayılmacı bir politika ortaya koyan İsrail, Ortadoğu coğrafyasında ve özellikle de Gazze’de askeri gücünü hiçbir kural tanımadan kullanmaktadır. Bu bağlamda İsrail’in Gazze’de icra ettiği operasyonlar derinlemesine incelenerek askeri güç kullanma yaklaşımlarının ortaya koyulması amaçlanmaktadır. Çalışmada İsrail’in 2008’den günümüze kadar gerçekleştirmiş olduğu beş askeri operasyon karşılaştırmalı vaka analizi kapsamında incelenmiştir. İsrail’in icra ettiği operasyonlar sonunda Gazze’de devam eden şiddet sarmalı ve çatışmalar döngüsünün yakın bir zaman içerisinde sonlanmayacağı ve bölgede barışın hâkim olamayacağı görülmektedir. İsrail’in gerçekleştirdiği Gazze operasyonlarında hedeflerine tam olarak ulaşamadığı göz önüne alındığında ilerleyen dönem içerisinde İsrail’in gerek Gazze gerekse de bölge üzerinde yeni harekât ve operasyonlara devam edeceği değerlendirilmektedir.
