1) This is Times of Israel. I have not discerned a general pro or anti Netanyahu slant from them.

2) Note that up thread, I state my support for Likud and conservatism in Israel.

3) I just got back from 3 weeks service in the IDF. I’m hardly weak kneed on the subject.

I follow TOI on Twitter/X closely, several times a day. The bias against Netanyahu is more subtle than the Jerusalem Post but still clear.

Look at the home page for TOI. It is without question a left leaning news outlet. I have seen numerous anti-Netanyahu articles on their home page over the last 8 months.

All media outlets in Israel are precisely like our majority of our national media outlets in America. overwhelmingly liberal.

Netanyahu can face the music after the war(s). Gantz would love nothing more that to have his chance to run the show, which is exactly why he joined and now left the War Cabinet.

The worst thing that could happen now is for Netanyahu to step down when firm resolve is necessary to avoid allowing Hamas to survive. Hezbollah is another issue that needs to be dealt with presently and with a firm hand.

Bibi is the man needed at this time, and consider that Biden and the left would love nothing more than to have him replaced. They've been encouraging this openly for months because Bibi will not capitulate to their agenda and is doing what is necessary for Israel as a whole.

Re: "I just got back from 3 weeks service in the IDF."

And, yet, you seem to be completely unaware that the entire nation of Israel was on high alert two weeks BEFORE the attack.

Please excuse me for having zero confidence in your military and political bona fides.

I think you explained your position well here:

If the nay-sayers want to continue to harp on you without reading what you actually wrote, let them continue with their own personal Festivus.
