I try not to listen or read much news, just enough so that I have an idea of what's going on. As you may know, I don't think that Bibi has done a good job. It's pretty obvious considering the wars going on here. The Buck Stops Here...
There's the "war" between various sectors and ideologies here in Israel. Some of this is connected to the old Labor socialists vs Revisionist capitalist Israelis. The imaginary and trumped up charges against hilltop youth and those to the Right of the Likud remind me of the Saison and Palmach attack of the Altalena way back when...
That's an earlier example of how the Israeli Left, which still controls many of the government departments, like the "justice department," which also causes the military glass ceiling, media distortions, Shabak's investigating "hilltop youth" rather than Arab terrorists, etc, etc, etc.
And of course there's the war that started October 7, 2023... and the fact that Ronen Bar, Director of the Israeli Security Agency knew something was "going to happen" but refrained from informing the Prime Minister and sending the IDF to protect the southern front. It's pretty clear to me that he were hoping that Bibi would have a breakdown like Yitzchak Rabin did during the 1967 Six Day War and resign/retire.
Now Bar is refusing to leave his position. I guess he's burning his papers...
But my big question is:
Why did it take Bibi a year and a half to go after him?
Yup, lots of questions, and the answers aren't pretty.
Unfortunately, when I searched in English news about Ronen Bar, the Times of Israel and Jerusalem Post had similar headlines to the unabashedly pro-terror anti-Israel Al Jazeera. The only honest, reliable article and youtube I could find was from JNS, Netanyahu refutes Shin Bet chief’s claims he broke law. So if you haven't yet begun to read and watch JNS- join now.
Now in all honesty, I do find JNS too worshipful of Bibi at times, but there's nothing better, more accurate. Unfortunately, that's one of the results of not having a term limit for Prime Minister here in Israel, but that's another problem. Searching this blog for a post about limiting the number of years for Prime Minister, I found this Israel Post-Coalition Crisis: Back to Usual #$!#! Idiocy. from nine 9 years ago.
I'll end here and await your comments. Please share, too, thanks.
