The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

So when Bibi is gone, it'll allow some of the Progressive Sheeple to accept that "Bibi" is gone and take their temperature down a bit.

Listen to the things Bennett, or Ben-Gvir, or Smotrich, or Katz, is saying, now, and in recent months. They will not lower the temperature one bit. If anything, they are more inflammatory than "Bibi".

Far-right Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, widely known for incendiary rhetoric and controversial positions on Palestinians, warned Thursday that a southern suburb of Lebanon's capital, Beirut, could face devastation similar to the Gaza Strip after the Israeli military urged residents to evacuate the area.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said Sunday that, under orders from him and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the IDF will accelerate the demolition of Lebanese homes in frontline villages along the border, "in line with the model we applied in Gaza's Rafah and Beit Hanoun," which have been largely flattened.

*That* is a deep bench. Retiring the top guy will not change policy.
