If this is true then they really fucked up and it bit them in the ass.

Judicial reforms = dead after Oct 7th

Approval rating = in the toilet, unlikely to win next election

It is a bad outcome for Bibi and he's never really had much interest in Gaza till now.

I think they honestly were too distracted with keeping themselves in power with their judicial reforms. They got warnings but those seemed vague compared to the threat of corruption charges they were personally facing. They fucked up.

I mean, it's a good outcome because they can bomb the hell out of Gaza.

I don't doubt that every member of his party would love to kill as many Palestinians as possible, but I don't think they'd prioritize doing so at the expense of their political careers.

They probably think their careers are safe.

Time will tell if that's true.
