Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated Thursday that he is continuing Menachem Begin's 'revolution' of replacing the old guard, saying the next step is appointing an IDF chief of staff and a police commissioner to fix the security establishment.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Thursday that he is carrying on the legacy of Menachem Begin's 'upheaval' (mahapach), the 1977 political revolution that ended decades of Labor dominance. 'We came to serve the people and inherit governance,' Netanyahu said in a statement. He pointed to the pending appointments of a new IDF chief of staff and Israel Police commissioner as the remaining steps to overhaul the security establishment. The remarks come as the government has been signaling a push to reshape military and police leadership. No specific candidates were named, and the timeline for the appointments remains unclear.
