Former Defense Minister and IDF Chief of Staff Moshe Ya'alon launched a sharp attack on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday, election day. In a post on X, Ya'alon accused Netanyahu of fearing election results and attempting to provoke security escalation and spread disinformation to influence voters.
"He understands that in an orderly election, he will be thrown into the dustbin of history, as the Israeli who caused the greatest damage to the country since its establishment," Ya'alon wrote, referring to Netanyahu. He further alleged that Netanyahu tried to instigate a war with Iran and heat up the situation in Judea and Samaria, but "they saw through him and didn't fall for the trap."
Ya'alon also linked Netanyahu's conduct to threats against Yair Golan, stating, "He continued to incite against his rivals, and we saw the result in the threat against Yair Golan." The former minister criticized Netanyahu for repeating claims about Arab voter turnout and potential fraud, predicting these messages would continue even after polls closed, though he presented no evidence for this forecast.
Concluding his post, Ya'alon urged the public to vote to remove the "government of lies, abandonment, and betrayal" and return to Zionism. He called on "everyone who cares about the country's future" to vote to save Israel from ruin.
