Israeli journalist Ben Caspit sharply criticized Defense Minister Israel Katz following Katz's live announcement on the 'Patriots' program about replacing Central Command Chief Avi Blot. Speaking on his 103FM radio show, Caspit condemned Katz's handling of the confrontation, calling the minister "stupid" and questioning the necessity of making such a declaration on live television.
