Text: 🚨🇮🇱🇮🇷 NETANYAHU MAY BE ON HIS WAY OUT. BUT HE STILL HAS THE POWER TO TAKE ISRAEL TO WAR WITH IRAN. As Gadi Eisenkot attempts to form Israel's next government, Netanyahu remains caretaker prime minister, retaining authority over national security and the military. Under Israeli law, a caretaker government can authorize military action, even a war, provided the required legal procedures are followed. But a new offensive against Iran raises significant questions about urgency, proportionality and government authority. Israel has launched military operations under caretaker governments before. A renewed war with Iran, however, could be far more consequential. The question isn't simply whether Netanyahu can act. It's what would legally justify that decision.
