Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said that Israel has reached one of its worst phases internationally, warning of a decline in its status and foreign relations, especially with the United States. Bennett added that Israel has lost the United States and lost the world, considering that its international standing is at its worst point ever since the founding of the state, calling for urgent action to address this decline. Bennett revealed a proposal to establish a national public diplomacy authority under the office of the Prime Minister in the next Israeli government, aimed at enhancing Israel's ability to influence public opinion and confront what he described as "the battle for awareness and influence." He explained that he intends to establish a unit named "8300," similar to Unit 8200 of Israeli military intelligence, to be responsible for waging the battle of influence and propaganda, with its activities extending to countries he described as "enemies of Israel," including Qatar and Iran. Bennett stressed that he is speaking about this issue very intensively and with maximum force, indicating that he considers improving Israel's image and enhancing its international influence a priority for the next government.
