Almog Cohen/screenshot: Keshet 12
MK Almog Cohen of Otzma Yehudit this morning (Friday) referred to the possibility of stopping the fighting in Gaza in an interview with Gideon Oko's program on 103FM, and said that "any plan that is not a complete decision of the Gaza Strip will not be accepted." He added, "For me, stopping the war will result In less than 24 hours after my resignation from the coalition."
"I will speak in my father's hat - we are Israelis, we have a tendency to forget things, but what happened here that morning near my house, it was a terrible massacre with terrible trauma and bodies on the street for whole days There was someone who would turn them away because there was chaos.
There was abnormal chaos here," Cohen said. "I don't see a reality in which the residents of the south will allow anyone anything other than a complete decision.
The most sacred thing for us is our children, and this is about their future.
You can't live like this, no one should live like this, certainly after the seventh of October."
"I was not born a politician and I will not die a politician," he added. "That morning I saw my brothers being slaughtered, heroes, I also almost lost my life, and I have no No intention to come and allow anyone who does not live here to come and make decisions about the future of our children.
In the end, we live here and do not intend to give up the future of our children."
"Any plan that is not an absolute decision - will not be accepted."

In addition, the Knesset member addressed his investigation with a warning that took place yesterday at the Lahav 433 offices. "The truth is that the investigation came after a demand by Knesset member Kasif, and in fact his request was granted. There is no evidence, there is no evidence. The same illustration picture that I brought up completely as a joke. I am right-handed, my gun is on the right side every Chai, the fighter there who makes the arrest, he didn't hit anyone in the picture, his holster was on the left side. No one changes guns during a disturbance."
To the question of why the investigation came up now, he replied that he "avoided speculation. The period is sensitive and you have to be careful. It's not like any new evidence has come up, nothing. I can't ignore the fact that lately I've been talking a lot about a serious security affair that took place on the seventh of October, really Not related to right, left, protest. I am revealing the affair little by little, a very, very difficult affair, in fact it is an Israeli citizen who infiltrated one of the sensitive army bases in the south, conducted himself there while impersonating an officer. I received information a few days later from several sources in the affair, and I am very Troubled by the ability to regulate the publication, to make a citizen disappear from the face of the earth for almost four months without anyone knowing about it."
He also emphasized that "I answered everything, I appreciate the Israel Police officers, certainly after the seven of October that they saved our country. I am a father of children, this morning my daughter Ella said to me, 'Dad, why did the police arrest you?'. I don't think that after 11 years It is appropriate to happen to a citizen for something for which there is not even a shred of evidence. Nothing, just a matter of timing in my opinion. It happens to be in a very stormy period when I am talking about a very difficult affair. If you have evidence, bring it, investigate - there is nothing. If you do the This, what will they do to the little citizen? It's scary."
