This is not a time for media literacy or historical knowledge to be held hostage by institutions bending the knee to authoritarianism.

Former Israeli Defense Minister Yaalon is right.
Netanyahu's government is committing war crimes & ethnic cleansing in Gaza. You don't fight terrorism by starving people & killing tens of thousands of civilians.
I hope more Israeli military leaders will join him in speaking up.
