Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's nomination and subsequent retraction of Eli Sharvit as the new chief of Shin Bet, Israel's internal security agency, highlights the lack of coherence in Netanyahu's leadership and reinforces the perception that decisions are made impulsively and without a clear plan. This chaotic decision-making process has contributed to the deep lack of trust Israelis have in their government. Netanyahu's corruption and poor judgment are evident in the Shin Bet scandal, which violates a long-standing taboo and exacerbates Israel's internal crisis. Some analysts suggest that Netanyahu's reversal was due to US pressure, as Sharvit had criticized President Donald Trump. However, Netanyahu's decisions are shaped by a complex array of factors, and his ultimate focus is on maintaining his political coalition and ensuring his political survival.
