โThe tragedy of Netanyahu is not only his cynicism but the society willing to mistake it for strength, enabling a politics that feeds on perpetual catastrophe.โ - Gershom Gorenberg
โNetanyahu is not merely a politician but a pathology. His power thrives on fear, sustained by a global order too compromised to restrain him.โ - Alon Mizrahi
โHis emotional detachment, forged in the shadow of a cold father, has hardened into a sociopathic armour, leaving Israel governed by a man incapable of empathy.โ - Eva Illouz
By 2024, Netanyahu's administration had reverted to a dysfunctional leadership style that chose survival over strategy. The Gaza Genocide demonstrated the instincts of a cornered animal, making war to maintain his own political relevance, rather than the hand of a master tactician. His paranoia caused him to break off relations with allies like Benny Gantz, further isolating him after he dismantled the war cabinet in June 2024.
Even his body turned against him by the end of 2025; his biblical manipulation of Amalek sounded more like desperate sermons than leadership, and signs of weakness and frustration showed through the "raging bull" performance. Psychologists diagnosed the arrogance he wears in the face of tragedy as the armour of sociopathy and linked his emotional detachment to a cold, distant father.
To his detractors, this is pathology rather than leadership, a malicious spiral into catastrophe wrapped in Machiavellian composure. The Global North is afflicted by a sickness, according to former Israeli analyst Alon Mizrahi, wherein incompetent leaders permit Netanyahu's fear and arrogant sociopathic behaviour to determine the parameters of conflict and diplomacy.
Who are Benjamin Netanyahu's targeted victims, do not kid yourself, they are:
- Christians of Palestinian heritage
- Muslims of Palestinian heritage
