“왜 하마스 공격 못 막았나“ 네타냐후 정부 책임론 부상 In the meantime, the recent surprise attack by Hamas on Israel has raised questions of failure and accountability within the Benjamin Netanyahu's Cabinet. Choi Soo-hyung explains. There is growing criticism of the Benjamin Netanyahu government in Israel for failing to prevent the surprise attack by Hamas on October 7th. The daily Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported on Thursday, local time, that Israeli Education Minister Yoav Kisch said that this incident happened under the current government, and they will take responsibility for it. The minister also emphasized that no one can escape responsibility, including himself as a government member. This is the first time a Cabinet member has publicly admitted the government's responsibility. Before this, Cabinet members had generally avoided giving public statements about the Hamas attack. On the same day, the Israeli parliament, the Knesset, approved of the emergency unity government, including a number of centrist opposition lawmakers, with a vote of 66 in favor and 4 against. However, the leader of the largest opposition party, former Prime Minister Yair Lapid, refused to participate, although he mentioned that he would support war efforts from outside the government, considering the country was in a wartime situation. Previously, Netanyahu's government had passed a law eliminating the Supreme Court's authority to overturn government decisions it considered irrational, reducing the judiciary's powers. Netanyahu argued this was to prevent judicial interference in politics, but the move faced intense opposition in Israel and from abroad. The centrist opposition National Unity Party also vigorously opposed the legislative changes, but its leader, Benny Gantz, emphasized the party's support for the war. Renowned Israeli historian, Yuval Noah Harari, wrote in a column for The Washington Post that many military officers and experts had warned the government that Netanyahu's policies were putting Israel in danger by eroding its deterrence power.
