"I see people here from all over the country: religious, secular, with worldviews from the right and the left," said Gallant, "I saw the demonstrations after the Yom Kippur war fifty years ago, I went through intifadas, there were always social events, but in the face of all these - the army succeeded To remain united, to understand the magnitude of the task and the great responsibility assigned to him."
"Any call to disobedience is a violation of Israel's security, no one is allowed to use the unit's symbol, the IDF symbol or the Israeli flag in order to justify one side," the defense minister added, "under no circumstances are we calling for disobedience anywhere, in any sector, in any corps and in any Unit."

"As officers and warning officers, we wish to warn you that we recognize a troubling accumulation of tell-tale signs that rise to a real concern for the integrity and security of the State of Israel," the unit's graduates said in a letter, adding that "the dramatic bills are being promoted in the Knesset in record haste and without making any attempt to hold a broad and honest dialogue, while Blatant disregard of Israeli and foreign experts covering all fields of action, security and economy, and even of the outline proposed by the president of the country."
