The PM's Diary: 3 Hours, 2 Versions, 1 Hard Question
Episode 5068
Published 1 month ago
Description
On October 7, 2023, how long did it take Prime Minister Netanyahu to learn of the attack and convene his first formal consultations? His office has now released two versions of his diary covering that morning, and they don't match. This episode unpacks what the discrepancy reveals about official record-keeping, the fog of crisis, and whether we're holding leaders to an impossible standard. We also examine the operational realities of moving a prime minister under rocket fire, and why the diary edit might not be sinister—but still matters.
