The newspaper claims that Halevi took over as Chief of Staff of the Israeli Army during a turbulent period and appointed by the transitional government.
He took office at a time when the Chief of Staff was at odds with the political echelon and amid a controversy over a judicial overhaul that rocked Israeli society and created serious divisions.
It was said that the Army had failed miserably in the face of Hamas’s surprise attack, but claimed that, under his leadership, the Army recovered and succeeded after more than a year of continuous fighting in seven different theaters, including Gaza and Lebanon. []
