Benny Gantz, a centrist member of Israel’s three-man war Cabinet, has announced his resignation, accusing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of mismanaging the war effort and putting his own “political survival” over the country’s security needs.
Based on prior political developments, Netanyahu — Israel’s longest-tenured prime minister, having served for more than 17 years as the country’s leader — will prioritize moves that will preserve his power and avoid early elections.
This certainly squares with his former best friend saying that he wants to be a dictator.
Inside Israel, he is considered the ultimate political pragmatist. It’s what his supporters love about him and what his detractors most despise. He will do anything to maintain his power and he is extremely effective at this.
