Yinon Magal places the blame for the October 7 disaster on the Israeli left, alongside the military and intelligence failure.

Journalist and host of 'The Patriots', Yinon Magal, places the blame for the October 7 disaster on the Israeli left, alongside the military and intelligence failure of the IDF and Shin Bet. In an interview on the podcast 'Open Account' hosted by former hostage Rom Breslavsky, Magal argued that the roots of the disaster lie in a worldview that took root in Israel over decades, from the Oslo Accords to the Disengagement Plan. Magal harshly criticized the belief that peace agreements can be reached with the Palestinians, calling these perceptions 'abnormal delusions'. He also addressed the religious component of the conflict with Hamas, claiming that for years a perception was entrenched in Israel that the conflict was not expected to become a religious one, but reality proved otherwise.
