Table of ContentsReviews'A major reason why Netanyahu is the longest serving PM in Israel is his ability to recognize potential leaders that might challenge him personally and disarm them. Yet the entire Israeli military elite confronts Bibi also because of an additional reason: Contrary to their professional approach to the Palestinians and the occupied territories, which is flexible and pragmatic, Bibi's attitude is essentially ideological. This book provides an excellent background to the military's longtime opposition to Bibi and to his attempt to overhaul of the judicial system in the summer of 2023.' Yoram Peri, Professor Emeritus and Former Kay Chair and Director of Gildenhorn Institute for Israel Studies, University of Maryland 'Guy Ziv has assembled an impressive array of published material and significant interviews to produce an important study of the relationship between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel's military leaders. Ziv answers a critical issue that has confounded policymakers and the public: In a society in which the Israeli military has been held in such high esteem, why have voters tended to believe Netanyahu over the generals on such important issues as the future of the peace process and Israel's relations with Iran?'
