Channel 14 commentator Yaakov Bardugo sharply attacks former chiefs of staff and senior defense officials, claiming they continue to appear in studios, spread failed concepts, and try to dictate the national agenda despite their colossal failure that led to the October 7 disaster. Bardugo argues that these former generals, who failed in assessing reality and building military power, dare to lecture the political echelon and promote a line that weakens Israel from within. He calls on the public to reject their influence and demand true leadership that faces reality. The column is based on Bardugo's remarks on the program "Israel This Morning."
