Sharp Criticism in the Israeli Press: Ben Caspit Against Netanyahu
In a series of publications released today, June 2, 2026, by media channels identified with the Axis of Resistance, such as الإعلام الحربي - التغطية الإخبارية, جنوب لبنان راصد العدو, and النبطية حاضرة جبل عامل〄 Nabatieh, the column by Israeli journalist Ben Caspit from the newspaper "Maariv" was presented. The reports focus on harsh criticism towards Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, highlighting the gap between his past statements and the reality on the ground.
According to the citing channels, Caspit recalls Netanyahu's speech as head of the opposition in 2022, in which he claimed that a prime minister must have the ability to say "no" to the President of the United States. Caspit argues that "it turns out that you [Netanyahu] lack this ability."
The author continues with pointed personal criticism, as quoted in جنوب لبنان راصد العدو, and claims that Netanyahu lacks the "ability to identify risks threatening your country in advance," and also lacks the "ability to achieve victory on any front."
The column describes Netanyahu as someone who acts in an "aggressive style" and is dismantling the "State of Israel" into parts. Caspit concludes his remarks by claiming that all that remains of Netanyahu is a "hollow voice" and "empty promises and ridiculous deception" that have continued for three decades, points that were also echoed in النبطية حاضرة جبل عامل〄.
