Fertiliser prices have increased substantially, while farmers also have to bear the costs of seed paddy, labour, machinery, irrigation, transportation, and interest on borrowings.

For nearly three decades, Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu has treated the state as an instrument of personal power rather than a public trust. No external enemy—not Iran, not Hezbollah, not Hamas—has done more to hollow out Israel from within than a leader who repeatedly sacrificed the country’s long-term interests to preserve his own rule. This is a grave charge—but the record sustains it. Netanyahu did not merely misjudge events or pursue failed policies in good faith.
