Netanyahu's Unfitness, Glazer's Oscar, Biden's Red Lines

Mr. Death
A recently released report has found Netanyahu partially responsible for a crush disaster caused by overcrowding that killed 45 religious Jews at Mount Meron in 2021.
How was he responsible? Well, reports had been brought to him about the risks of overcrowding at the site and he ignored them.
Netanyahu, who for years called himself “Mr. Security” has now presided over two disasters—Meron and October 7th—that could have been prevented had warnings been heeded.
