This study uses an online survey to conduct a list experiment to determine whether the military conflict between Hamas and Israel (mid-May 2021) – the so-called Operation Guardian of the Walls – should be considered political use of force by Prime Minister Netanyahu to preserve his threatened political career and life. Our study analyzed the experimental data and contributed to the studies on the political use of force from the perspective of political psychology. The result revealed that citizens with perceptions of political use of force rated Netanyahu's war leadership more highly than citizens without such perceptions.
