The son of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Yair wrote today on his profile on the social network “Instagram” that “The Supreme Court and the Prosecutor's Office are destroying the country, reported the newspaper "Jerusalem Post", quoted by BTA.
Under his comment, he shared the words of Dr. Michael Ben-Ari, a former member of the Knesset from the far-right party "Otsma Yehudite" ("Jewish Power") who was barred from running again for inciting racism.
According to the policy, judicial authorities will prosecute “hundreds of soldiers and officers”, just as during the Israeli military operation in Gaza in 2014, which he says will lead to a “duplication of the Israeli armed forces”. According to Ben-Ari, it is the “fear of eliminating the enemy” then subsequently leads to the attack by the Palestinian movement “Hamas” on July 7 against Israel, when over 1,200 Israeli citizens were killed and over 250 more were kidnapped. “They want to bring us an even greater disaster. That is why we stand behind these soldiers, behind these fighters, or else our country is doomed”, added the far-right Israeli politician, whose words were published by Yair Netanyahu.
Last month, Netanyahu criticized Air Force Commander Major General Tomer Barr, writing: “Where was he and what did he do on October 7?“
The prime minister's son's comments were in response to a report on Israel's Channel 14 that said Barr had appointed Brigadier General Ziv Levy to be in charge of training air force pilots. The publication accompanying Netanyahu's remarks included harsh criticism of the brigadier general.
