One of Israel’s leading businessmen, Amnon Shashua, has urged the immediate ouster of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his government.

In a high-profile public rebuke from Israel’s private sector, Shashua, the head of self-driving auto technologies firm Mobileye, said Netanyahu’s government was guilty of “failures, dissonance and incompetence”.

He wrote in an opinion piece in financial daily Calcalist:

    We must cut our losses and do it quickly. The only solution to the current situation in Israel is to replace the government, and it needs to happen immediately.

Netanyahu caused his own uproar on Sunday by taking a jab at his intelligence chiefs, saying they never warned him Hamas was planning its attack, but later retracted his comments and issued an apology.

Netanyahu’s office, asked by Reuters, declined to comment on Shashua’s editorial.

The government, Shashua said, which seemed more concerned about its political survival than “the good of the country,” could be replaced without calling a new election, minimising political turmoil, with the formation of a new coalition within the current parliament.
