‘From Roar to Meow’: Israeli Officials and Press Slam Government Over Failed Lebanon Campaign
Israeli media and political figures have sharply criticized the government after a month-long operation in Lebanon failed to dismantle Hezbollah or secure a buffer zone up to the Litani River. Leaders of northern settlements condemned a US-brokered ceasefire as a “sentence to wait for the next massacre,” saying the prime minister repeatedly failed to deliver the security promised despite heavy civilian losses. Opposition parties and commentators echoed these concerns. Former premiers and defense ministers vowed to address the Hezbollah threat in the next administration, lamenting a campaign that started with “the roar of a lion” but ended sounding like “a cat’s meow.”
