Likud Party leader and former prime minister Binyamin Netanyahu tore into Israel's current leader, Ehud Olmert, Sunday, accusing him of sitting around and achieving nothing.
When you're prime minister "you have to do the work, not just show up," he said.
"This government is in free fall," he said earlier. "One failure after another. Now it's a political collapse after the government's hesitation during the Mecca agreement. ... Now they're trying to do too little, too late."
Consecutive national polls show that the vast majority of Israelis disapprove of Olmert's performance in office, which has been described as lackluster at best and downright pathetic by the less kind.
"Bibi" Netanyahu and his party, who were thrashed in general elections just over a year ago, are in the lead to win if elections were held today.
