A high school in central Israel invited journalist Roni Singer (Kan 11) to give a lecture next week. At the center of the lecture is her investigative report on election integrity, which aired on “Zman Emet.” Today, she received the following message from the school: “We apologize, the Education Ministry did not approve your lecture; they did not provide a reason.” Singer shared on X: “What a great way to police discourse in the education system.” Social bulletin
Translated from HebrewBlinken’s denial in a tweet is not related to Shlomi Eldar’s report about the warning given to Bibi before the massacre, but to Hamas’s offer to release all the hostages without compensation immediately after October 23.

Translated from HebrewGili Cohen: A source in the Peace Council: Israel has given up on a ‘clean cut’ in the Strip—and is essentially maintaining the policy that existed before October 7. Hamas remains on its feet, and Israel is not dismantling it completely—neither through good means nor bad. We hope Israel will soon implement the 20-point agreement it signed. By the way, as part of the Peace Council process, more than a quarter of a million Gazans wanted to join the Palestinian police force being established in Gaza these days. Israel approved 16,000 people who are not identified with Hamas and have no security background. 4,000 are supposed to leave for training in Egypt—but Israel is refusing to approve their departure. According to sources in the council, approval in principle was previously granted, but the move is now frozen. The same source wondered: Israel currently does not allow them to leave for Egypt to train, so how will we collect the weapons if there is no new Palestinian police force whose every officer has been approved by the Shin Bet?

Translated from HebrewJoint statement by the leaders of the Change Camp in response to this morning’s revelation: The public in Israel deserves to know what happened before, during and after the October 7 massacre. A state commission of inquiry will be established immediately in the next government. This is the leadership’s duty to its citizens. Netanyahu, enough with the lies; the Israeli public is entitled to know: What did you know, and when did you know it? This morning’s shocking revelation requires an immediate and thorough investigation. It joins a series of revelations about Netanyahu’s failures and his inability to function, and it once again underscores why Netanyahu is fighting for his political life: to thwart the establishment of a state commission of inquiry and the exposure of the truth to the Israeli public. While Netanyahu and his people spread false conspiracy theories and try to shift responsibility onto the security establishment, it is again becoming clear that serious warnings reached him directly and he ignored them. This is arrogance and a betrayal of the trust that Israel’s citizens and his government placed in him, and it is also extreme negligence in the role and functioning of the prime minister. The Israeli public is entitled to know: What did Netanyahu know, when did he know, why did he not update the security establishment, and why did he not act to protect Israel’s citizens? There is no longer any room for excuses, denials or concealment. We commit to the citizens of Israel: immediately upon the establishment of the thirty-eighth government under our leadership, we will establish a state commission of inquiry that will investigate the failures that led to the October 7 debacle, get to the truth and ensure that this disaster does not happen again. Netanyahu and his partners in the October 7 government are unfit to continue in office. We will work with the coordination and responsibility required to prevent them from leading to another disaster. ___________ Gadi Eisenkot, chairman of the Yashar! party; with Eisenkot: Naftali Bennett, chairman of the B’Yachad party; Avigdor Lieberman, chairman of the Yisrael Beiteinu party; Yair Golan, chairman of the Democrats party

Translated from HebrewMerav Cohen (Together) on the unprecedented plunge in PISA tests: The results published today by the OECD are a serious indictment of the education system, and especially of the person at its helm. For 4 years Yoav Kisch has been busy with politics, punishing local authorities that do not flatter Likud, and pampering diamonds and Haredi schools, and the results speak for themselves. If in Kiryat Shmona more than a quarter of elementary-school students and one in eight middle-school students have not completed their reading and writing studies, it is a sign that we are in total collapse, a resounding failing grade for the leaders of Israel’s education system.
Translated from HebrewTali Gottlieb warns Likudniks: Bibi will not advance a reform; he is the High Court's insurance policy.
Translated from HebrewI put two and two together. During the week they were at the hotel in Neve Ativ, Netanyahu already knew and had been warned
Translated from HebrewNow Sara and Bibi Netanyahu's interview, a week before its publication in Haaretz, brings some order to things; we understand that they wanted to spread the opposite narrative for an entire week, so that everyone would talk about the fact that they didn't wake him. And then the audiovisual bombshell explodes today. He knew before everyone else and didn't inform anyone.
Translated from HebrewChair of the Democrats, Major General (res.), Yair Golan: The stories of “They didn’t wake me up” are over. He knew. He was warned. This is not a lapse in judgment, but deliberate and criminal abandonment of responsibility. The investigation revealing that Netanyahu received an explicit warning from the president of the UAE and deliberately concealed it from the army and Shin Bet leadership shatters all the lies he told us. He was warned again and again. The security establishment warned him. We warned him—the hundreds of thousands of Democrats who stood in the squares, on the bridges, and in the streets and cried out: You are endangering Israel and leading us to disaster. And he called us anarchists and Kaplanists. He preferred his personal survival and the draft dodgers and extremists. Now it is clear: Netanyahu is unfit and illegitimate. His place is in prison for his crimes against the State of Israel.

Translated from HebrewWhen they said he would withdraw from Lebanon in an agreement with Iran and the U.S., everyone said, No way, especially he himself. This is how, quietly and without anyone noticing, they report on a withdrawal. They will not call it that so as not to weaken him, but in practice, read between the lines. I am surprised they are even still reporting anything to us.
