❗️Netanyahu Admits Failures on Oct 7 but Ducks Personal Responsibility

Israel’s longest-serving leader has dodged accountability and said any inquiry would have to wait until after the war ended.

“There were failures, obviously. . . The govt’s first responsibility is to protect the people. That’s the ultimate enveloping responsibility. And people weren’t protected. We have to admit that,” Netanyahu said in a televised interview with Dr Phil.

Asked if he held himself to account, he replied: “I hold myself and everyone on this. I think we have to examine how it happened. What was the intelligence failure? What was the military failure?”

👀 Zelensky’s No Churchill and Ukraine’s Corrupt – Dominic Cummings

Cummings - who led Britain’s Vote Leave Brexit campaign and spectacularly fell out with Boris Johnson in 2020 - declared that the West “should have never got into the whole stupid situation” and claimed sanctions against Russia have had a greater impact on European politics than in Moscow.

“This is not a replay of 1940 with Zelensky as the Churchillian underdog,” Cummings told the i newspaper. “This whole Ukrainian corrupt mafia state has basically conned us all and we’re all going to get f*cked as a consequence. We are getting fu*ked now, right?”

He argued that war would only strengthen the relationship between Moscow and Beijing, saying Western nations “pushed [Russia] into an alliance with the world’s biggest manufacturing power.”
