Omer Amselem, a combat PTSD sufferer, said in the Knesset that opposition MKs and media channels are using soldiers' blood for political gain. 'Don't make spins on our blood,' he said, adding that the real problem is the lack of a law for combat soldiers in Israel.
Omer Amselem, a veteran suffering from combat PTSD, spoke in the Knesset on Wednesday afternoon, condemning what he described as the exploitation of soldiers' trauma by opposition MKs and media channels. In a direct address, he said: 'Don't make spins on our blood, enough playing with our blood and that of the dead, and also not on October 7. We have been here for five years... We are not against the Haredim and not against the law. Our cry is that there is no law in the State of Israel. We want to enter the law.' His remarks come amid ongoing debates over the status and rights of combat soldiers.
