Families of captives held in Gaza held their weekly rally in "Tel Aviv" on Saturday evening, along with protests across "Israel" against the government, days after negotiators explosively reported that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appeared unconcerned about those held captive.

According to Channel 13, around 45,000 people demonstrated in "Tel Aviv" last Saturday, with organizers claiming 100,000 were there. 

Today's demonstrations came after two members of "Israel's" negotiation team told Channel 12 in a broadcast aired Thursday that Netanyahu looks unconcerned about the plight of Israeli captives and has hampered efforts to strike an agreement to guarantee their release.

The anonymous negotiators, recognized only by the letters "A" and "D", wished to expose the fact that "Israel" was not doing everything it could to free the captives.

"A", who spoke with a modified voice to conceal his identity, highlighted a culture of "cold indifference" to the captives' condition from "the top", notably the Prime Minister's Office, and said that Netanyahu was unable to consider fresh ideas during strategy discussions.

"I can't say that without Netanyahu there would have been a deal, but I can say that without Netanyahu, the chances of making a deal would be better," according to "D".

“It happens again and again, we get a mandate during the day, and then the prime minister makes phone calls at night. He says, ‘Don’t say this, don’t approve that."

"A" also stated that the Israeli team has been compelled to make unreasonable requests, such as the March request for a list of surviving captives, which they know Hamas will not accede to.

They also stated that the political leadership seemed removed from the predicament of captives, noting that negotiators would frequently share photographs and anecdotes about the captives to help lawmakers be more empathetic.

'Israel's' leadership using war to block protests against it

Anat Arbel, one of the leaders of "The Pink Front," a group that organizes the weekly rally on "Tel Aviv's" Kaplan Street has asserted that the Israeli leadership is "making cynical use of the word 'war,' using it to say that 'now is not the time to protest.'"

Arbel, a member of the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF), has said that as the IOF battle Gaza, "this government is fighting us."

Another member of the IOF by the name of Nimrod Shafir stated that “the longest war in the history of Israel is also the greatest failure among wars in the history of Israel," adding that “those who failed are our leaders, and at their head ‘Mr. Security,'" alluding to Netanyahu.

"Israel" is experiencing its deadliest political unrest for the first time, as angry protests have been smothered in a government crackdown of unbridled force.

Netanyahu leading war with 'stupidity' toward 'absolute defeat'

Israeli newspaper Haaretz described Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a report on Saturday as "stupid" and "weak", as he still hasn't understood that without a political solution, "Israel" will continue to be subjected to repeated attacks that could have severe consequences.

In addition to this, the outlet also said that Netanyahu is a "liar, coward, panicked, and selfish" who is "unable to make decisions."

According to Haaretz, Netanyahu is "so detached from reality that just a moment before October 7, 2023, he said that Israel's international situation was excellent" and that the entity was close to achieving "peace with most Arab countries, including Saudi Arabia, without addressing the Palestinian issue at all."

"The peak of Netanyahu's stupidity was his belief that he could buy Hamas with money, without realizing that it is an Islamic [Resistance] group that wants to destroy Israel," it continued.

"Imagine what would have happened if Hezbollah had also attacked on October 7. Netanyahu would not have defended the north as he did at the Gaza border," the report said mockingly. "All this, and we have not yet discussed what would happen if Iran, Yemen, Syria, and Iraq joined the October 7 attack all at once."
