Yossi Ahimeir, writing for an Israeli news aggregator, has criticized Tzachi Hanegbi for remarks made prior to the October 7th Hamas attack, stating that these comments cannot be erased. Ahimeir specifically referenced Hanegbi's assertion that "in today's situation, there is no high expectation for a multi-arena campaign," calling it a surprisingly revealing statement for someone in a sensitive and secret role, akin to a political campaign rather than a state employee bound by secrecy.
Ahimeir argues that the country will only achieve further military successes and stand against those advocating for Palestinian interests globally under the leadership of the "National Camp." He urges voters to look forward rather than backward when casting their ballots, emphasizing that the state's progress depends on this forward-looking approach.
The author also called on voters to disregard what he described as lies spread by the government's political rivals and to remember the unprecedented incitement against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, which he deemed a danger to his safety. Ahimeir accused the opposition of losing all restraint in its propaganda efforts, aided by biased media coverage, and warned against being swayed by the empty promises of opposition leaders.
