Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has called for the establishment of a state commission of inquiry to investigate the Hamas-led October 7 massacre and the failures surrounding it. Speaking at the graduation ceremony for IDF officers, Gallant received applause as he emphasized the need for a comprehensive examination of the events leading up to the tragedy.
“It must examine all of us: the decision-makers and professionals, the government, the army, and security services, this government — and the governments over the last decade that led to the events of October 7,” Gallant declared. “It needs to examine me, the defense minister, it must examine the prime minister, the chief of staff, and the head of the Shin Bet, the army, and all the national bodies subordinate to the government.”
Gallant outlined the scope of the proposed commission’s investigation, stating, “This commission of inquiry must examine the intelligence and operational failures of the events of October 7, deal with the process of managing the war, delve into the building of Hamas’s forces over the last decade, beginning with the formulation of the Hamas plan to invade the communities of the south, and up to the errors made in assessing the enemy’s capabilities and in warning of its intentions, culminating in October 7.”

The problem is that the so called judges who will be used to “investigate” will turn it into a political cesspool where they will cover up all the lefties disgusting policies and failures that went on all the years leading up to Oct 7, all the BAGATZ policies that were detrimental for Israel etc…
If there was a real investigation the results would be that all the heads of Tzahal Shabak Aman and the Justice Department including many judges and prosecutors would have to be fired and even prosecuted for their crimes against the Jewish citizens of Israel
Does anyone see this happening any time soon?
The Defense Minister along with the military commanders are the ones most likely to be blameworthy. A Prime Minister (or President) is not expected to be supervising border posts.
