  "account": "Former Hamas hostage Gadi Moses has criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for opposing a state inquiry into the October 7 massacre, accusing the prime minister of resisting the inquiry for political reasons. Moses, who was kidnapped during the massacre and released after 482 days, believes Netanyahu is aware of the events and simply opposes the inquiry. The inquiry remains a contentious political issue ahead of Israel's election on October 27. Moses, 82, plans for the future of Israeli society, stating that Netanyahu's leadership has contributed to divisions within the country. He also discusses the future of Israel-Palestine relations, expressing skepticism about the possibility of peace and emphasizing the need to address the situation tomorrow. Moses criticizes the security situation near Nir Oz, expressing that residents continue to live in fear despite the military presence. He calls for a change in the way Israelis discuss the trauma caused by the October 7 attack, urging a more compassionate and understanding approach.",
  "summary": "Nearly three years after the massacre, no state commission has been created, while members of the opposition have pledged to create one if they form the next government.",
