The shamelessness of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu escalated this week. In a conversation with his spokesperson, Topaz Luk, he repeated his claim that "They didn't wake me up" on October 7, and also explained why the chief of staff and the head of the Shin Bet security service didn't wake him: "They were afraid that the prime minister, this 'nut case,' would deploy the air force and the entire Israel Defense Force and wouldn't let anyone near the fences [the Gaza separation barrier] – that we'd kill them immediately."
