The Minister of National Security and member of the political-security cabinet Itamar Ben Gabir attacks US President Joe Biden on the background of his demand from Israel to stop the fighting in Gaza and his intention to establish a Palestinian state. In an interview with the "Wall Street Journal" about Ben Gabir: "Instead to give us full backing, Biden is busy providing humanitarian aid and fuel that ultimately goes to Hamas."
While the US is in an election year and when Israel consistently avoids interfering in internal American politics, the minister said that he is convinced that "if Trump were in power, the behavior of the US would be completely different."
Later in the interview, the chairman of Otzma Yehudit spoke about his plan for "the day after" in the Gaza Strip: "We need to encourage the residents of Gaza to voluntarily emigrate to other places around the world, among other things through economic incentives." According to him, "this is the real humanitarian thing to do." Ben Gvir says that according to intelligence material he was exposed to by virtue of his position, there are indeed many Palestinians who would be happy to immigrate. "A world conference can help find countries that are willing to take in Palestinian refugees," he said.
In response to Ben Gvir's words, opposition leader Yair Lapid said: "The interview that Ben Gvir gave to the Wall Street Journal is a direct harm to Israel's international status, a direct harm to the war effort, harmful to Israel's security and above all proves that he understands nothing about foreign policy. I was Calls on the prime minister to restrain him, but Netanyahu has no control over the extremists in his government."
