While Israel’s military and intelligence chiefs have owned up to their shortcomings leading up to the attack, Netanyahu has dodged responsibility, creating a growing rift between him and the departments.

Netanyahu has said that there will be time to ask tough questions, including of himself, after the war.

“[Netanyahu] is not interested in security, he is not interested in hostages, only politics,” said opposition lawmaker Avigdor Lieberman, once Netanyahu’s defence minister, in a radio interview.

Then, and only then should they hold a lip service inquiry into who fucked up!
