Harsh criticism by Gadi Eisenkot regarding the government's conduct

Former Chief of Staff and Member of Knesset Gadi Eisenkot leveled sharp criticism at the conduct of the government and its leader, Benjamin Netanyahu, against the backdrop of the complex security situation. In posts published on several channels, including Daniel Amram Censored and 301 News - Arab World, Eisenkot accused Netanyahu of failing to achieve the war's objectives, which he labeled as "smoke and mirrors".

Eisenkot argued that "an abyss lies between the empty promises of 'total victory' and this morning", and emphasized that the residents of the North have been abandoned for two and a half years and remain exposed to threats. In response, the channel YINONEWS - Yinon Magal, identified with support for Netanyahu, attacked Eisenkot and claimed that if they had surrendered to Hamas according to his past proposals, the victory would have been total.

Simultaneously, an analysis published on the channel 12 Corner 99 - Yanir Cozin and Yaron Avraham presents a more complex position, according to which Netanyahu's current failure against Iran is a loss for all of Israel. The reporters note that the Prime Minister's arrogance and his reliance on President Trump have backfired, while warning that Iran is gaining international legitimacy and developing nuclear capabilities.

Conversely, sources supporting Netanyahu continue to present him as a strategic asset. On the channel 🔅 Political Arena ‼️, Topaz Luk was quoted claiming that Netanyahu carried out moves against Iran that no one believed would happen, this as part of the public effort to defend the government's achievements in the face of the wave of political and security criticism.
