At the 1:17 point, I suffered acute Avenue Jew fatigue.

Thanks Bruce. I guess that fits Israelis' reputation for bluntness. The accusations worry me, but I think it's a good thing that Israelis across the spectrum are questioning the country's trajectory.

PS I'm still on vacation but check in once or twice a day.

Welcome back Genghis. I think it's less shocking in Israel than it would be here. Different culture with respect to hierarchy, with far less deference. I guess it's perhaps more analogous to how I understand things, at least in the past, used to work in Italy. The significant thing I think is that Netanyahu is being publicly challenged by a guy like Dagan, someone whom Bibi can't dismiss as just some typical sniper on his left.

This is pretty shocking

This is pretty shocking stuff. Imagine a former CIA chief laying these kinds of public accusations against a sitting president.
