Another smoke and mirrors statement – Netanyahu does not care what any President or Prime Minister thinks nor does he care what normal humanitarian people think – his whole focus is on murder, genocide and Apartheid and staying in power so that his own illegal actions cannot go before a court – Mark
Benjamin Netanyahu has reacted furiously to a US intelligence assessment that warns the Israeli Prime Minister’s hold on office “may be in jeopardy” warning of a “public and dramatic” confrontation with US President Joe Biden.
The report, which also warned Israel would fail to eliminate Hamas, has left Mr Netanyahu “fuming,” according to Israel’s Channel 12. The broadcaster reported that the Prime Minister had “decided to embark upon on strong, public and dramatic confrontation with the president of the United States.”
A senior official – described by Channel 12 as “the most senior Israeli political source you can imagine” said in a statement: “Those who elect the prime minister of Israel are the citizens of Israel and no one else.
“Israel is not a protectorate of the US but rather an independent and democratic country whose citizens are the ones who elect the government. We expect our friends to work to bring down the terror regimen of Hamas and not the elected government in Israel.”
The intelligence assessment, part of a 40-page report on global threats from Gaza and Ukraine to terrorism and cyberspace that was released on Monday (Tuesday AEDT), warned: “Netanyahu’s viability as leader as well as his governing coalition of far-right and ultraorthodox parties that pursued hard-line policies on Palestinian and security issues may be in jeopardy”
“Distrust of Netanyahu’s ability to rule has deepened and broadened across the public from its already high levels before the war, and we expect large protests demanding his resignation and new elections,” it continued. “A different, more moderate government is a possibility.”
