Former Prime Minister Yair Lapid, responding to remarks made by Israel Katz:
“The reckless and hysterical statement by the Defense Minister is a gift to Israel’s enemies.
Once again, this failed government is looking for excuses and scapegoats for the failures of Netanyahu and the bunch of incompetents surrounding him.
They failed to eradicate Hamas, failed to bring down Iran, failed to eliminate Hezbollah, and failed on the international stage. And now they’re blaming the opposition.”
