The Democrats Party chairman Yair Golan addressed the war in the Gaza Strip during an interview on Monday with Kan Reshet Bet’s This Morning program, saying: “A sane country does not kill babies for a hobby.”
“Israel is on the path to becoming a pariah state among the nations – like the South Africa of old – if it does not return to behaving like a sane country,” Golan said.
“A sane country does not wage war against civilians, does not kill babies for a hobby, and does not set goals involving the expulsion of populations.”
“These things are simply appalling,” he continued. “It cannot be that we, the Jewish people–who have suffered persecution, pogroms, and genocide throughout our history, and who have served as a moral compass for Jewish and human values–are now taking actions that are simply unconscionable.”
Golan placed direct blame on the government, stating that it is “filled with people who have nothing whatsoever to do with Judaism – Kahanist types, lacking wisdom, morality, and the ability to manage a state during an emergency. This is dangerous to our very existence. That is why it’s time to replace this government as soon as possible, so this war can also come to an end.”
Former prime minister Ehud Barak noted that he believed that Golan's comment was likely directed to the political echelon.
If he still has his job tomorrow, Labour (let's face it, that's who the party is) should get no seats in the next election.
ReplyDeleteHe's already back-peddling. No, I didn't mean the governement. Right, because it's Bibi and Ben Gvir who are stalking through Rafiah looking for babies to shoot.
He should remember that the only reason we're in this spot is that Labour created the PA which set up Gaza to become this hellhole in the first place.
