Defense Minister Israel Katz accused opposition leader Yair Golan of inciting against Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria and thereby fanning Palestinian terrorists to attack them and IDF soldiers, saying Golan gives the enemy a tailwind, according to N12.
Defense Minister Israel Katz escalated his verbal exchange with opposition leader Yair Golan on Saturday evening, accusing him of inciting against Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria and thereby encouraging Palestinian terrorists to attack both settlers and IDF soldiers. "Golan is an inciter against Jewish settlement in Judea and Samaria, fanning the flames for the Palestinian murderers to attack them and IDF soldiers — and giving the enemy a tailwind," Katz said, according to N12. The remarks come shortly after The Zioneer reported that Katz had earlier accused Golan of a 'blood libel' against the military. The exchange reflects the deepening political rift over security policy and the status of the settlements.
