Yeah, I think you're right. Netanyahu is still currently on trial for corruption, he's struggled to form a governing coalition, and even though he wanted to turn 10/7 into a moment of national unity, most Israeli's blame him for the attack. He really is not popular domestically, and losing the support of Israel's largest international partner would probably be the final nail in his coffin. I think this narrative of the U.S., "overthrowing," Netanyahu is his government's attempt to spin mild U.S. criticism into foreign election interference.
