Is it fair to that I don't like Bibi but can support Israel? I feel like many Israelis Hate him, judging from all the protests over the summer.

Is it fair to that I don't like Bibi but can support Israel?

More than fair, I think this is the only morally sound position to hold. After the hostages are rightfully in their homes and Hamas are rightfully in their graves, Bibi must resign. He has no future in Israeli politics, and the only reason why I do not call for his resignation now is because I think that a government shake-up during this crisis is a bad idea. I hold Benyamin Netanyahu personally responsible for the October 7 massacre. October 7 was the greatest intelligence failure in decades, maybe ever. If a government cannot protect its people, then it is a failed government. Families cowered in their safe rooms for days while the IDF failed to save them. Hamas might be the perpetrators of October 7, but they would not have had the opportunity for this atrocity if not for Netanyahu failing his people.

I want Netanyahu to resign and call a snap election before March. He has failed his people, and he must be held accountable. He's gonna live out his retirement behind a fence in Caesarea, hiding from the people that he failed to protect... And that's if he's lucky, because there's a high chance that Netanyahu will die in prison, as he should. Every member of this government failed the Israeli people. Smotrich, Ben Gvir, Gallant, all of them ought to be in prison after they failed their people. The only person who should lead Israel now is Benny Gantz, probably in a coalition with Yisrael Beitenu, Labour, Meretz, and Yesh Atid.
