Former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett sharply criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his response document to the State Comptroller, which he called the "document of excuses." Bennett attacked, saying "Netanyahu presents himself in the document as the Israeli 'Forrest Gump,' a weak fool, poor and helpless, who got caught up in an incident. He is not a leader, he is not a commander. The document he drafted and published is the most serious possible indictment against a prime minister in Israel."
