As many as 80% of Israelis believe Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu must take responsibility for the security failures exposed by the devastating Oct. 7 assault on Israeli by Hamas, a poll in the Ma'ariv newspaper showed on Friday.
Well, it might. The Hamas surprise attack is the exact same thing as the surprise attack that started the Yom Kippur War. The prime minister at the time, Golda Meir, was also blamed for intelligence failure and her government resigned. This might happen again under Netanyahu, but he seems to be a smart enough fella for self-preservation so he might have learned from history. But who knows.
(as an aside, very ironic to say “intelligence failure” if anyone catches my drift)
