But he chose not to attend the government meeting about his case, because he feared he would need to provide answers—especially to one question: Why, despite knowing of Hamas’ attack hours in advance, did he do nothing and not call the Prime Minister, which could have prevented the disaster? If Ronen Bar had performed his duties as fiercely as he clings to his chair, October 7 wouldn’t have happened,” the source said.</p>
