Ex-Official Accuses Netanyahu Family of Interference
The article addressed accusations by Yoav Hoorivits, former head of the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, regarding the latter’s failure to govern effectively on his own and the extensive and influential involvement of Netanyahu’s family in government decisions, particularly in security and political matters. He pointed out that the family’s influence, including his wife Sara and son Yair, interferes in decision-making, and affirmed that this has led to a decline in democracy in Israel since 2019, with the family exerting pressure on governmental institutions such as the judiciary and police. Hoorivits also mentioned that family pressures caused a sudden reversal of an agreement with the United Nations in 2018. There is also a family demand to enforce loyalty among government employees, which Netanyahu rejected. He criticized the autocratic style of governance practiced by Netanyahu, which has resulted in weakened checks and balances and facilitated the targeting of the judiciary, considering his actions similar to monarchic or imperial rule. The Likud Party responded to these claims, arguing that Hoorivits has shifted to the left after his disagreements. Hoorivits emphasized that Israel is no longer the same country after the events of October 7, 2023, and that the current phase calls for a profound reevaluation of the country’s governing approach.
