I agree. Previous Israeli leaders have been more conciliatory and open to negotiation with their neighbours than Netanyahu though and they have also faced constant attack from Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis etc as well as facing the existential threat to their nation from Iran. They have had to resist and fight back and keep their people safe. I often wonder how their critics think they should do it. It’s urban warfare, fighting an enemy with no uniform. As I say, I think Netanyahu have been shown up as a poor military strategist and has been at the wheel for the worst breach of security in the history of Israel. He is useless but left wing Israeli leaders have had no success in dealing with their enemies either. Calling them
all ‘genocidal’ makes no sense though, and Netanyahu isn’t the first to be called it.Â
