Responsibility

Anything

On the continuation of a disaster – Amos Harel in Haaretz:

‘Netanyahu has stuck to this line ever since – blaming others while taking no responsibility for anything. That's how he has managed to oust all the previous defense chiefs while remaining prime minister even after 22 months of war.’

(…)

‘The bottom line is that there are things that even the ouster of a chief of staff cannot dim. The government, due to its mistakes and failings, has positioned Israel in a precarious strategic position in Gaza. These include strategic mistakes, almost as serious as ones made in the period leading up to October 7. Even if the father, son and the holy ghost now attack Zamir, they will not advance a victory in war or a hostage deal.’

A precarious strategic decision is a nice understatement for war crimes.

The these crimes will come to hunt the perpetrators is true.

And of course, some war crimes will be largely forgotten because the perpetrators ended up as victors.

But victory is not everything, as already Thomas Mann stated in the thirties.
