Lisa, Even if the hatred for Olmert and Peretz misses the point, and even if people are primarily unhappy because Israel didn't achieve a convincing victory in the war, isn't there something good to be said about citizens expecting their leaders to take responsibility? If there had been no reaction by the public at large to the Winograd report, I know I would have been reading complaints about Israelis' apathy in Ha'aretz the next day. Also, it strikes me that a failure to discern

"the complex reality behind the received narrative of Bad Guys v. Good Guys"

was really not the problem here.
