Netanyahu was in serious political and legal trouble prior to the October 7 attack. So long as the war continues, he won’t be out of office or subject to legal process.

Netanyahu has weathered many political storms, but the Oct. 7 attack is the strongest one yet

Netanyahu was already facing spiraling setbacks before what many consider the worst day in Israel’s history.

He is on trial in connection with an array of charges, including bribery, fraud and breach of trust, which he denies. After the latest in a series of elections and collapsed coalitions, his most recent Cabinet, which features a cast of ultranationalist and ultrareligious firebrands, is the most hard-right government in Israel’s history. He has also faced some of the biggest protests in Israeli history over judicial reforms that critics say would concentrate too much power in the government’s hands.

While atrocities such as the Hamas attacks sometimes produce a rally-round-the-flag effect for those in power, there has been no such boon for Netanyahu.

A poll conducted days after the attack found almost all respondents, 94%, believe the government must share some of the blame for Hamas’ unprecedented land, sea and air assault on Israel, which killed around 1,400 people. A huge majority, 86%, said the attack was a failure of the country’s leadership, and 56% said Netanyahu must resign after the war.

“Netanyahu was in serious political and legal trouble prior to the October 7 attack. So long as the war continues, he won’t be out of office or subject to legal process.”

Things like this are published frequently by the opponents of politicians, especially when those have been unfavorable to particular US Presidents. Obama used taxpayer money to attempt to remove Netanyahu in operations against Israel itself and it’s people. Obama clearly interfered, and with Biden as a puppet. The same ‘playbook’ that we have seen used against Trump, by the same people. Obama also interfered in the Ukraine, and caused conflict there.

It doesn’t matter if Netanyahu is in or out, the attacks by the Arabs will continue. Now getting rid of Obama, and his puppets, that might actually do something for world peace.
