Has Bibi forgotten what loyalty means?
Instead of standing by Gadi Eizenkot and condemning the soldier who shot a Palestinian attacker in custody, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu preferred to follow the public mood to the soldier's side.
Every Monday, at the start of the weekly Likud faction meeting in the Knesset, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu makes a statement to the press on a topic or message he wants to promote.
This Monday, March 28, the Internet was flooded with comments in support of a soldier who shot and killed a wounded Palestinian attacker after the attacker was captured. In his remarks to the media, the prime minister expressed empathy and understanding for the soldier. Previously, Netanyahu had expressed reservations about the horrific and shameful act, but when he saw which way the public mood was heading, he decided to align himself with it.
