IDF Ombudsman Major General Yehoshua Brick attacked the Knesset's Foreign Affairs and Defense Commitee after it found in a recent report that the IDF is prepared for war. The report came following warnings by Brick that the military was unprepared for armed conflict.
"The committee's conclusions are not entirely consistent with the very serious failures that harm the preparedness of the ground forces for war, which appear in the reports of the Defense Ministry's Comptroller and in the special report I issued," said Brick.
"The committee lost a one-time opportunity to lead a courageous move to remove the ground forces from the deep mud in which it is immersed."
