      It’s not positive for Netanyahu. He wants an excuse to keep killing Palestinians until the job is done. That’s why he let October 7th happen in the first place, it’s why he’s been rejecting generous hostage agreements so far. Of course this is a problem for him. Now he has to come up with some new lie and fake reason, and it’s inconvenient.
