It's-a Me, Mario! Benny Gantz Resigns from Israeli Government

Breaking News in the Mushroom Kingdom

It's a me Mario! I heard the news that Benny Gantz a member of Israel's three man war Cabinet decided to hit the 'Game Over' button and resigned. Wah hoo! Guess it's time for me to jump back into the political adventure!

Netanyahu's Power Ups

Looks like my buddy Benjamin Netanyahu is still holding onto the majority coalition in parliament. Must've collected some power ups along the way! But now he's leaning more on his far right allies...sounds like a tricky level.

Gantz's Unity Move

Gantz teamed up with Netanyahu in unity after that Halloween Koopa Troopa attack – I mean the Oct. 7 Hamas attack. His presence really boosted Israel's rep with the international partners. Wonder if he found the Warp Pipe to get out of the government?

Gearing up with U.S. Officials

Gantz made sure to keep a close relationship with U.S. officials. Smart move buddy! Maybe he was trying to unlock some DLC content for Israel. But it seems like he wasn't getting the high scores he'd hoped for.

Postwar Gaza Plan Quest

Gantz was on a mission – he told Netanyahu he'd be out of the game by June 8 if there wasn't a new plan for postwar Gaza. Looks like the quest didn't end the way he hoped. Maybe he should've gathered some extra lives along the way.

Toadstool's Take on the Resignation

Princess Toadstool heard about Gantz's resignation and said 'Looks like someone's been playing with Fire Flowers – things got a bit too hot to handle!' I gotta admit that's pretty punny coming from the Princess.
