Political commentator Amit Segal sharply criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech in the Knesset on Tuesday, calling it a significant political mistake that caused damage. Segal stated that Netanyahu deviated from his planned remarks, leading to negative consequences.
"From a cold political perspective, one can agree that this speech was a grave political error by Benjamin Netanyahu," Segal said. He explained that on a day when the "change government" seemed to be faltering and facing obstacles, with actions like recordings of Bennett's party activists or public statements from Avigdor Lieberman, Netanyahu should have delivered a conciliatory speech if his goal was unity or elections.
According to Segal, Netanyahu's speech effectively told them, "Wait, wait, wait, if this is the alternative, let's make another effort after all," suggesting they still have time and the mandate.
