During the "HaPatriotim" program on Channel 14, panelist Yaki Adamker sharply criticized retired Major General Nitzan Alon, accusing him of damaging Israeli resilience and prolonging the war. Adamker's remarks came in response to Alon's statement that "we could have ended the war a year earlier." Adamker alleged that Alon acted irresponsibly by leaking information from closed security discussions with the Prime Minister, Defense Minister, and Chief of Staff to the media. According to Adamker, Alon's actions contradicted the firm stance of the Israeli government and political leadership to defeat Hamas. Adamker asserted that such behavior harmed the war effort and Israeli morale, suggesting that "people like Nitzan Alon" caused the greatest damage to Israel during this period and potentially extended the conflict. The discussion in the studio became heated regarding the responsibility of former security officials.
