Yedioth Ahronoth reported on Friday that 26 former senior Israeli security officials and 17 senior officials in the civil field, including three Nobel Prize winners, signed a public letter calling for the dismissal of the Prime Minister of the occupation government Benjamin Netanyahu, following the failures of the war in Gaza. They consider him unqualified to lead Israel and that his hands are stained with Israeli blood.
The newspaper published the letter’s contents and disclosed that it would also be published in the US at the end of the week.
Most of the signatories expressed their clear opinion of Netanyahu, even before Operation Al-Aqsa Flood on 7 October, through speeches some gave during demonstrations opposing the plan to undermine the judiciary led by the Israeli government.
Journalist and political commentator of the newspaper Nahum Barnea considered that the most crucial matter is not the names included on the list but the timing, explaining: “The protests that were completely frozen after 7 October demand a return to the core of public (Israeli) discourse. The allegations differed, but the goal did not change.”
