The Chief of Staff on the month of Ramadan: the forces are on alert in all arenas/IDF spokesman
Member of Knesset Elazar Stern (Yesh Atid) commented today (Sunday) in an interview he conducted with Ben Caspit and Aryeh Eldad on radio 103FM about the round of appointments that Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi intends to start in the IDF, while fighting, and said that he is happy that Levy himself is the man who heads the system.
In addition, Stern referred to the passage of the 2024 budget in the Knesset last week, saying that it was a scandalous budget.
"The army should continue to run forward, both to fight and to do other things. I am convinced that where there is doubt about things that may be related to what happened on October 7, they will not be named. But I have no doubt that those who can wage war now and are conducting it in a very impressive manner, so there is Consequences for the very fact that he is the head of the army, and it is good that Chief of Staff Ratzi Halevi is the head of the army today," said Stern.
"Government ministers are trying to shift responsibility."

Stern commented on the passage of the 2024 budget in the Knesset: "A week ago we passed a scandalous budget in the Knesset, the one who prepared it is a government that failed, I didn't hear that chorus, why is the government passing a budget? I think the price of the mistake of October 7 is the army, but also the government."
According to him, "the army, since the black hole that needs to be investigated, functions like no other army in the world. It takes much more mental strength and abilities to function after such a failure as the IDF leadership functioned after October 7th, and it will not be exempt from October 7th as a result of the performance Her impressiveness today, but now I salute her."
Stern also referred to the criticism that elected officials pass on the members of the defense establishment: "I think that the politicians who are talking about the army - 'Why is he now making appointments?'
This is to pass the responsibility on the army and not on themselves. They are government ministers, they were cabinet ministers, at least they should shut up. When they continue to function and do actions in which there is no learning of the required lessons at all, let them not do this poor technique of passing responsibility on the army so that they do not Be on them."
