Netanyahu leans on familiar playbook as Israel's protector after Hamas attack

Original: Using old election playbook, Netanyahu projects image as Israel's protector despite Hamas attack

Benjamin Netanyahu is being accused of reviving his long-standing election strategy of presenting himself as the indispensable guardian of Israel's security, even after the October 7 Hamas attack exposed major intelligence and military failures. Reuters reports he is projecting the same protector image despite the deadliest security breach in the country's history, as Israelis debate his accountability and political survival.

Why now: Netanyahu's messaging is under scrutiny because it contradicts the security failures revealed by the Hamas attack while he still faces public anger and potential elections.
