@glynmoody Netanyahu needs a continuous war to stay out of jail.

Israel's legal system investigated him for corruption and is only prevented from finding him guilty because there's a war on. Once the war ends, he goes to jail.

This is one reason why you don't make wartime an exception to laws.

yup. the problem with all "emergency powers" laws is that corrupt politicians will always find a way to create an emergency when it serves them.
