Maybe Netanyahu is a bit worn out, so they need a new facade for a war, that couldn't be continued without the assistance of the US and Germany to begin with.
Netanyahu was always overrated as the main culprit for #genocide in #Gaza. Survey results repeatedly showed a majority of Israelis supporting not only the war as such but acting recklessly on the Palestinians.
The personalization of politics gives the ruling classes a lot of leeway to maneuver themselves out of predicaments - just change the face and people believe in a new start of something that just gets a reputational face lift.
