'Netanyahu preventing victory' | Benny Gantz resigns from emergency government
Arutz Sheva ^ | 9/6/24 | Hezki Baruch

Minister Benny Gantz (National Unity) announced on Sunday that he, together with his party, would be leaving the emergency government which he joined at the onset of the war.

"Months after the October tragedy, the situation in the country and in the room of the decision-makers has changed. Netanyahu and his partners have turned unity into a moving call, without real-world action. Fateful strategic decisions are met with hesitancy and procrastination due to political considerations," Gantz stated in an address announcing his decision.

He claimed that "Netanyahu prevents us from proceeding to true victory. Therefore, today, we are leaving the emergency government with a heavy heart, but with a full heart."

According to Gantz, "In the fall, a year after the tragedy, we need to go to elections that will eventually establish a government which gains the trust of the people and can stand up to the challenges. I call on Netanyahu: set an agreed-on date for the elections. Don't let our nation be torn apart.

Netanyahu is facing corruption charges, and he tried to change the court's power by limiting its ability to determine specific laws as unconstitutional. The Israeli Supreme Court then ruled that the rule limiting their power was unconstitutional. Isn't that precious? Apparently, under Israeli law, the only office Netanyahu can hold while charged with corruption is the Prime Minister. So, he was focused on keeping that position of power.

The attempt to alter the court's power led to widespread protests and even a revolt in the IDF. Some analyses believe HAMAS saw this and chose to attack, while Israel was focused on internal issues versus external threats.

Where was Gantz from 2019 to 2021 when Israel's security was his responsibility? HAMAS had been planning the Oct 7th attack for a decade. They built up their capability under his watch. Guarantee: as soon as the war ends, Gantz will want to follow Biden and the State and make the Palestinian Authority the government in Gaza.

I say it again-——

AFAIK-—BIBI is the only person who has military experience.

BIDEN certainly DOES NOT.

If the US is still at least pretending to be a Superpower, then I suppose they have handlers for everyone of our allies. They certainly have handlers for the Germans since the Germans failed to complain about us blowing up their pipeline. Also, Sweden seems to have handlers as they decided to end their investigation of the pipeline explosion once they found solid evidence that it was most likely the US.

So I imagine Netanyahu and Gantz have their handlers as well. If they could afford to manufacture their own armaments then they wouldn't need us. Since they seem to still require our armaments they have to at least pretend to listen to what is left of the US empire.

Caroline Glick reported that a number of field officers will meet and go public with their complaints about the General Staff tying their hands. Is it getting coverage in Israel.

And just what is victory to you Mr. Gantz?

Surrender to Hamas as Biden demands?

I’ll see. Our news is just as unreliable as yours, except often you can see with your own eyes what’s going on, because the news comes to you.
