In the aftermath of the shocking Oct. 7 massacre by Hamas gunmen, Israelis have come together to support one another. However, there is growing discontent towards the government, which is being accused of neglecting the country’s security and plunging it into a destabilizing Gaza war.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has had a long and illustrious political career, will face a day of judgment. Public outrage has been fueled by Netanyahu's self-styled image as a Churchillian strategist who can foresee national-security threats. Additionally, the government's judicial overhaul drive, which has caused social polarization, is now raising doubts about combat-readiness.

The Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth boldly stated, 'October 2023 Debacle,' a headline reminiscent of Israel's failure to anticipate an offensive in 1973. This could lead to similar consequences for Netanyahu and his conservative Likud party.

It doesn't matter if there's an inquiry or if he admits fault; what truly matters is how 'middle Israelis' perceive this situation. They see it as a fiasco with the prime minister being held responsible. This could spell the end for Netanyahu and his entire establishment.

According to a poll in Maariv newspaper, only 21% of Israelis want Netanyahu to remain prime minister after the war, while 66% prefer 'someone else,' and 13% are undecided. The poll suggests that if an election were held today, Likud would lose a third of its seats, with Benny Gantz's centrist National Unity party making significant gains.

However, at this critical juncture, Israelis aren't seeking an election; they want action. Former military chief Benny Gantz, despite political differences, has joined Netanyahu in an emergency cabinet to address the ongoing crisis.
