Bibi is totally losing control of the narrative.
He might be regretting letting the October 7 attack happen on purpose.

Is he going to have freed hostages killed?
What I will tell you: the hostage release has been a total disaster for Bibi, because the hostages were all well-treated, and now they’re saying they thought Bibi was going to kill them.
Bibi is going to kill the rest of the hostages. He has no reason not to, given how this first exchange went. That’s why they’re now talking about flooding the tunnels (where all the hostages are).
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faced harsh criticism from freed hostages and relatives of those still being held captive by Hamas during a war cabinet meeting, according to leaked audio of the heated event.
Recordings from Tuesday’s meeting revealed that the freed hostages had felt abandoned by their government during their weeks of captivity in Gaza, with several people shouting “Shame!” at Netanyahu while one woman accused Israel of conducting airstrikes near the place she and others were being held.
“The feeling we had there was that no one was doing anything for us,” the former hostage, who was not identified, told Netanyahu in audio acquired by the Israeli outlet ynet.
“The fact is that I was in a hiding place that was shelled, and we had to be smuggled out and we were wounded,” she added. “That’s besides the helicopter that shot at us on the way to Gaza.”
The woman went on to blast Israel’s intelligence network, alleging that the government had “no information” at all about the hostages’ location given that their holding place was shelled during the IDF’s bombardments in northern Gaza.
The former hostage, whose husband remains in captivity, also accused Netanyahu and the government of abandoning the male captives in Gaza, saying they are suffering just as much as the women, the bulk of whom have been freed.
…
Other former hostages echoed the hardships they experienced under Hamas and the fear of the ongoing airstrikes in Gaza, which have destroyed and damaged about 60% of the Palestinian enclave’s buildings and infrastructure.
“We were in tunnels, terrified that it would not be Hamas, but Israel, that would kill us, and then they would say Hamas killed you,” one Kibbutz Nir Oz resident who was freed told the war cabinet.
The fact that Bibi is going all-in on this rape hoax gibberish shows that he’s well aware that this is spinning out of control.
The most obvious thing he can do is just start bombing Iran right now.
That’s more or less the only way he can save his position.
Israelis are weird people, but they’re not so stupid as to not understand that Bibi is choosing to slaughter babies instead of freeing hostages, and that his current course is going to mean that the remaining hostages all die.
