Olmert accuses Netanyahu of treason
"I accuse the prime minister of Israel of a deliberate attempt to destroy the political-security-military alliance between Israel and the United States … His displays of braggadocio and arrogance on television, in which he berates the president of the United States and his actions, are a master performance of irresponsibility, losing one's cool and contempt for Israel's most basic needs, and a calculated attempt to sabotage Biden's reelection campaign" – Former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert

I accuse the prime minister of Israel of taking deliberate actions meant to cause a widespread flare-up of violence in the West Bank, in the knowledge that this would trigger the expansion of war crimes against Palestinians who are not involved in terrorism in any way.

His refusal to reach an agreement that would allow all the hostages to return to Israel is based on the argument that it would prevent a total victory over Hamas. But total victory is not an option now and it has not been an option from the day the prime minister first presented it. It was meant to be an impossible goal that would allow the prime minister, any time he chooses, to blame the failure to achieve it on the military and the fighting forces in general and on the person who leads it, Lt. Gen. Herzl Halevi, in particular. The chief of staff of the Israel Defense Forces bears great responsibility for the horrifying failure of October 7...

I accuse the prime minister of forming a security cabinet comprised of a rare assortment of people lacking skills, experience or understanding of the very complex system that is supposed to provide innumerable services and handle endless problems.

And all this alongside the manipulative and corrupt management of the state's resources and assets.
