Iran’s weekend attack is a sign that Israel’s key defensive policy of deterrence has been severely damaged by the actions of the Netanyahu government, according to the leader of Israel’s opposition, analysts and former Israeli officials.
“This government, this prime minister, have become an existential threat to Israel. They have shattered Israeli deterrence,” the opposition leader, Yair Lapid, said on Monday.
