Dumbass remarks like this is what happens when you live in your echo chamber and listen exclusively to faux news and alt right.

Now let me set the record straight for you. And this is not just from me and many of the well informed senior US intelligence officers, but also from the former head of Mossad. So unless you are a real world james bond who gets bored gathering intel and posts on SI, you should listen to them and not to your echo chamber sensationalist conmen.

Meir Dagan was an expert on Iran and he was adamantly against Bibi's self-serving warmongering. His key message (repeated in numerous occasions) was that while Iran was a threat to Israel, those threats had been contained and the right thing to do was to negotiate from a position of strength and come to a settlement.

Of course, if you are a scummy politician, or a sensationalist pundit, and racketeering defense contractor, then you have no interest in peace or truth and will want to see the war drumbeats go on forever.

.

Who do you think was more objectively informed and believable, Dagan or Bibi?

"At this time and in the foreseeable future, there is not an existential threat to Israel. Israel is the strongest state in the region and there is an enormous gap between it and every country and organization around it. Therefore, it is appropriate for the leadership in Israel to stop scaring the citizens and to stop telling them that we are on the verge of a second Holocaust." -- Moshe Ya'alon

But what does he know right? He resigned over how slimy Bibi was. But go ahead and ignore the facts in favor of fear mongering and sensationalism while completely being blind to the personal motives and the pundits.
