Prominent Israeli journalist Ben Caspit has argued that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu poses the greatest danger to Israel, advocating for a "change of power" rather than an "overthrow" of the current leader. Speaking on 103FM radio on Wednesday, Caspit stated that Netanyahu is "the most dangerous person for the State of Israel" because "all the most severe disasters occurred during his rule." He specifically blamed Netanyahu for the events of October 7th, claiming the Prime Minister "created Hamas" and failed to fulfill his promise to defeat the organization.
Caspit's remarks come after Netanyahu's speech to the newly sworn-in Knesset, which drew criticism on social media for lacking a unifying tone and failing to signal a willingness to form a national unity government. Instead, Netanyahu warned against governments involving Arab parties and criticized opposition parties considering such alliances.
In response to Netanyahu's statements, the "Yashar" party announced it had canceled a planned meeting with the Likud party. Yashar stated that Netanyahu's "incendiary remarks" prompted their decision to call off the talks.
