As the song says, a Latin American with no money in his pocket.

History will not forgive this cowardice.

Netanyahu is the epitome of human disregard, a calculating despot who manipulates others’ tragedies as if they were mere pieces in an endless political game. He has turned the country into a laboratory of cynicism, where suffering is distilled drop by drop to sustain the rotten narrative of a regime that only survives by feeding on the despair of its own citizens. We are not merely facing a failed leader; we are witnessing a moral collapse, where a leader deliberately extends the conflict, weaponizes the anguish of families, and runs the country with the coldness of a sociopath. Netanyahu isn’t just a leader – he’s a parasite that thrives in chaos, for every new explosion, every silent funeral, grants him another day of power, another chance to deflect attention from his own failures and crimes.

His political calculus is chillingly clear: he reigns as long as there’s war. And for that, he would sacrifice every hostage, every civilian, every soldier, because, in his twisted worldview, human lives are mere tokens in a political casino where the only thing that matters is his survival. He wraps himself in the guise of Israel’s defender, but what he indeed defends is his skin. He doesn’t fight for the security of the people; he fights to protect his seat in power. And the price of this insatiable ambition is paid with the blood and the future of an entire nation.

The tactic is as despicable as it is transparent: keep the country in a perpetual state of fear, where panic replaces reason and any attempt to question leadership is branded as betrayal. Netanyahu knows that the only way to maintain his rule is by perpetuating chaos, and to that end, he doesn’t hesitate to pour gasoline on every member he can find. He deliberately weakens the nation, deepens divisions, and crushes any attempt at dialogue or reconciliation. He doesn’t want peace – peace would be his downfall. He wants war, an endless conflict because it is within destruction that he has built his political empire.

Netanyahu is the embodiment of cruel opportunism, a man who turns funerals into platforms and exploits grief to divert attention from his scandals. The country is drowning in tears, but he, safe within his bubble of power, is only concerned with finding new ways to divide, manipulate, and maintain his grip. He has succeeded, through a continuous campaign of disinformation and fear, in turning a tired population into silent accomplices of their degradation. And meanwhile, he remains steadfast, a dictator disguised as a democrat, grinning cynically as the country burns around him.

It’s infuriating, but what’s worse is the resignation that spreads throughout the country. The widespread exhaustion is no coincidence – it’s a deliberate strategy. Netanyahu crushes the spirit of resistance under the weight of fatigue, ensuring that any opposition movement dissipates before it begins. He wants a nation in a trance, anesthetized by constant pain, incapable of reacting as he destroys Israel’s future in exchange for a few more years in power. He would rather see a ruined Israel than lose control – and that is the raw and brutal truth that few dare to admit.

We are facing a leader who hasn’t just failed; he actively sabotages any hope of salvation. He has turned the government into a bunker of paranoia, where the external enemy is always less significant than the internal critics. Under his command, war has become the norm, and peace is a threat. Israel has become hostage not to foreign forces but to a leadership that has embraced moral collapse as a strategy for survival.

And that is the true tragedy: Netanyahu isn’t just destroying the present; he’s compromising the future. Every day he remains in power is another nail in the coffin of what Israel was meant to be – a nation of justice, of humanity, of values. He has torn apart whatever dignity was left, replacing it with a regime built on fear, hate, and division. There are no more excuses for those who support him – what we are witnessing is not a mistake but a conscious choice to embrace tyranny in the name of false stability. And history will not forgive this cowardice.

The pressing question now is: how much longer will the people of Israel tolerate being used as human shields for the insatiable ambition of a man who has nothing to offer but more blood, more pain, and more despair? As long as Netanyahu remains in power, the only certainty is that the war will continue – not because it is necessary, but because it is the key to his reign.
