Israel Stalls Investigation into October 7 Attacks, Sparking Outcry
Hey there! Let's chat about the latest political drama unfolding in Jerusalem.
The Israeli government has been under scrutiny for not starting an investigation into the October 7 attacks that devastated the nation. The Movement for a Quality Government Israel, a pro-democracy group, has been at the forefront of the call for a state commission of inquiry, but alas, the security cabinet keeps pushing back that initiative.
The Movement condemned the constant postponements, stating in a press release, "The Israeli government and its leader are skirting the truth, knowing fully well that only a state commission of inquiry can uncover the root cause of the matter and delve into the events of the war."
They're urging Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to establish the commission to examine any potential oversights in the response of the security forces before and after the attacks, with the hope that it will provide the answers all Israelis deserve.
Meanwhile, the opposition in the Israeli Parliament (Knesset) shares the Movement's disappointment, deeming this another evasion tactic by Netanyahu regarding the attacks that claimed 1,200 lives. Opposition leader Yair Lapid expresses concern, stating in a tweet, "If we don't look into what caused this disaster, we won't be able to learn the lessons and prevent it from happening again."
The call for transparency and accountability in the investigation reaches beyond Israel's borders. As a matter of fact, Chilean parliamentarians have suggested breaking relations with Israel if the conflict continues to intensify[Credit: EFE].
