In the days that followed Hamas attacks On October 7, 2023, Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin NetanyahuAny general recognition of responsibility for the failure of the massive security. He often avoided attending souvenir services. He rarely met with the families of the Israeli hostages who were suffering from Gaza tunnels.
Under the former Israeli prime ministers, the flagrant lapses of intelligence and military strategy were somewhat quickly followed through listening sessions and dramatic results. In October 1973, the Egyptian and Syrian forces surprised Israel in the Sinai Peninsula and the Golan Heights, and a few days accurately, and the state was placed in a deep danger. Within weeks of the conclusion of the attack, which became known as the YOM Kippur War, the state investigation committee, led by the President of the Supreme Court in Israel at the time, Shimon Warsen asked about the witnesses of experience and supervision that led to the crisis. The results of his findings helped in the resignation of Prime Minister Golda Mir and Defense Minister Moshe Dayan.
In contrast, although the prominent members of the Netanyahu military and defensive establishment have resigned or apologized for their roles in the tragedy of October 7, it has so far evaded any real accountability, and has rejected any investigation. As a result, for the first year after the attacks, its survey numbers were horrific. Political observers in Israel talked through the ideological spectrum of Matthew, not, no, Netanyahu will finally fall into power and will be replaced, among other matters, General Benny Gantz, former Prime Minister Navalie Bennett, or former Finance Minister Avigdor Lieberman. However, as Nahoum Barna, a veteran political column writer, told me at that time, “I go to the funerals of politicians to ensure their burial. But the return is possible.”
Now, the next day Donald Trump Join Israel in the bombing of the Islamic Republic of Iran Nuclear facilitiesNetanyahu and his circle depend on his political resurrection. It doesn’t matter Gaza disasterWith tens of thousands of dead and world. It is not concerned with the political attacks of Netanyahu on the criteria and democratic institutions. Do not mind its legal sources.
Amit Sigal, a journalist for channel 12, is deeply obtained in the Prime Minister’s office and is considered a kind of Messenger for his thinking. SEGAL called on Sunday, less than one day after the US B-2 Drossing their load on the nuclear sites in Fordow, ISFAHAN and Natanz in what was called Midnight Hammer.
“In the first twelve months after October 7, it seemed as if this was Gallipoli from Netanyahu, a catastrophe that destroyed the Churchill profession.” In 1916, as the first head Defeat In the Gallipoli Peninsula in Türkiye by the Ottoman Empire.
“This was the most terrifying moment in the history of Israel, and under the management of” Mr. Security “, Sejal went.” It was not just another scandal. It was the reason for his existence. Today, after that Fall From Hezbollah, in Lebanon, the fall of Assad in Syria, the fate of Hamas, and now The attack on the nuclear program In Iran, October 7 is like Pearl Harbor – a devastating failure that ends later with his complete victory. I think history, in fifty years, will witness October 7 in the context of Israel’s war. But the question is, immediately, does the Israeli public see it in this way? I am not sure. But it is important. It was re -created as a security master. But the matter has not yet ended. However, people here see the Israeli attack and get the green light from the United States and Trump as the most exciting diplomatic achievement for Israel since the United Nations voted for its presence in 1947. “
SEGAL has only a loop of originality as it seems to be accurately repeated concerns, West, thinking, and even the inner life of Netanyahu. In his memoirs, Netanyahu refers to continuous references to Churchill. When I met him during his first term, Netanyahu smoked the huge cigar and kept a picture of his office. When it comes to Tehran, Netanyahu talks about gathering storms for many years. In 2006, he said: “It is in 1938 and Iran is Germany.” In 2011, British researcher Pears Morgan told, “I am a fan of Winston Churchill because I think he saw the danger to Western civilization and behaved in time to stop the bleeding.”
Sejal told me that in planning a military attack on Iran, the security establishment estimated that the retaliatory strikes would cause between eight hundred and four thousand deaths in Israel. To date, the reality has been much lower than those expectations. Some Iran’s ballistic missiles slipped through the Israeli air defenses, and according to Timesand At least twenty -nine people were killed and nine hundred. Sigish also allowed that when Netanyahu justified the strikes to the public by talking about the proximity of the Iranian nuclear weapons program, it was frankly that the literary description was more than the sporting description “-although this Israeli was only actually intelligence. Sigal said that the conclusion was” they could do it tomorrow. “The decisive factor was that Iran was in a weak condition, where a large part of its air defenses was eliminated. “They took what they knew and photographed it as more dramatic than it was,” Sejal said. But Netanyahu was right in intent. “
When Sigal’s comments quoted Churchill to Amos Harril, the defense analyst HaritzHarril laugh. “Well, this is the narration of Bibi. As a historian son,” the father, Netanyahu, was a right-wing historian in the Spanish Inquisition-“He is thinking this way. What he is trying to do now, without providing everything, which was supplied with everything, which was what he was providing, which was what he was providing, which was what he was providing, and he was what he was providing, Convert in the history of the Middle East.
Israeli analysts told me that it was not yet clear how or when Netanyahu may try to benefit from the Iran issue to achieve political gains. Some say that he will ultimately call for new elections and may find a way to give up the most reactionary members in his current alliance, Itamar ben-gvir And bezalel Smotrich. Netanyahu can communicate with his critics for national unity, or he may use his apparent success against Iran to nourish its way on the road to more tyranny. Others even speculate that, after they attacked Iran and took over the United States to join the war, he will call it, after he was the tallest prime minister in Israeli history, ending. One of his biography and writer to EconomicHowever, Ancel doubts this scenario, saying: “Netanyahu has no life at all without this position.”
