Netanyahu's Wife Repeats Conspiracy Theory About Yair Golan's Actions on Oct. 7
Sara Netanyahu, wife of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, echoed a conspiracy theory regarding Yair Golan, chairman of the opposition party The Democrats, during an interview with Channel 14, a media outlet close to the prime minister. She suggested that Golan, due to his high military rank, should have been "dressed and ready" very early on October 7, even before the prime minister was aware of the unfolding events.
In response, the Democratic Party issued a strong condemnation of Netanyahu's remarks, labeling them "slander and lies." The party asserted that while Netanyahu was "running to put on makeup and look for excuses," Golan "charged forward and saved lives." The Democrats accused the Netanyahu family and Channel 14 of attempting to rewrite facts and crossing a "red line bordering on madness" by spreading conspiracies and tarnishing Golan's heroism on October 7.
