Netanyahu is a champion at evading blame: Israeli media
Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth highlights that Hezbollah and Hamas are not intimidated, as they can see the weakness of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
In an article for Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth, Gilad Sharon, son of former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, expressed that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's perceived weakness and cowardice fail to deter anyone.
He further asserted that the ongoing process to recover Israeli captives from the Gaza Strip, particularly those held by the Resistance in the Nuseirat camp, central Gaza, would not significantly alter the overall situation, especially given the eight months that have passed since October 7.
Sharon also criticized Netanyahu and the members of the mini-ministerial council for retaining their positions, along with the heads of the military and security establishment, accusing them of neglecting their duties. He argued that their failure to fulfill responsibilities undermines the military establishment.
He emphasized that in an Olympic Games event for "evading responsibility," the military and security establishment would sweep all the medals. Sharon singled out Bezalel Smotrich, a member of the mini-ministerial council, who denies accountability for negligence and failure despite holding the position of minister of Finance.
Sharon strongly criticized Netanyahu, calling him an expert at avoiding blame. He said Netanyahu doesn't take responsibility for any failures and questioned who is to blame for Hezbollah's actions and neglecting the northern region. Sharon concluded that nobody fears Netanyahu's weak leadership.
Israeli media recently shared statements from former Israeli officials discussing "Israel's" vulnerabilities which were exposed during the war on Gaza and with Hezbollah in the North. These officials emphasized that "Israel" cannot secure a conclusive victory.
