Gantz's Passive-Aggressive Stance Now Appears in Book Form

By חן ליברמן
Translated & summarized from Haaretz by baba
The story · English

Benny Gantz, a prominent figure in Israeli politics and a former IDF chief of staff, has reportedly adopted a passive-aggressive approach, which is now being reflected in a book. This approach is characterized by indirect communication and a reluctance to confront issues directly, a style that has drawn criticism and commentary.

The article touches upon various other unrelated news items, including the Supreme Court's delay in a decision, which allegedly provided Donald Trump an opportunity to sow doubt among Religious Zionism voters. It also mentions the Religious Zionism party's plan for continuing judicial reform, the US confirming the existence of a space weapon, and a concerning rise in suicides among reservist and active-duty soldiers, with at least 20 active-duty soldiers having died by suicide this year. Additionally, the piece references media criticism of "NezA" (likely referring to a news program or outlet), a former employee opening a similar establishment to a popular stand in Tel Aviv, and commentary on "Bibism" as a religion alongside Judaism.

Further points include the potential political comeback of Moshe Feiglin after years on the fringes, and a discussion on Iran exacting a price from the US for its economic warfare. The article also notes that relatives of hostages have become a sought-after asset, though not necessarily within the party that fought most vigorously for them.
