It’s a little hard to grasp why everyone thinks that Netanyahu as a personal interest in continued war. I don’t see that, nor do I see an explanation of why. The innuendo has been that his mistakes may have led to Oct 7th. That may be true, but unrelated. Netanyahu, like him or not, was really just ‘in charge’ when Oct. 7th happened. The driving force for Oct 7th has been years of ‘donations and support’ to a populace of people that wants Genocide of Jews. That is a single truth, that is undeniable based upon events, and can be confirmed by simply watching videos of how children are raised in the middle east by bigot parents.
The second truth is that Netanyahu cannot win this war. There will never be a time that the Bigots that started it will disappear, or their ideas will disappear. While I believed, for just a few moments, that Trump could accomplish peace in the middle east (and may have if it had not been for the Democrats, Chinese, and deep state), those possibilities evaporated with the events that occurred in 2020 and current administration.
Obama and Biden, with the help of much foreign money, have moved the world close to WWIII and it’s horrors than ANY prior US administrations. Fossil Fuels are clearly less of a risk to the environment than Democrats. Stolen elections have grave consequences. The US SCOTUS, in a domino fashion, by avoiding it’s duty to review an original jurisdiction case, is connected to the Oct. 7th event and its’ consequences.
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.
