Netanyahu's Wife Repeats Conspiracy Theory About Gallant's Actions on Oct. 7
Sara Netanyahu, wife of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, repeated a conspiracy theory on Channel 14, a pro-Netanyahu outlet, regarding the actions of Yair Golan, chairman of the opposition party The Democrats, on October 7th. She claimed that as a high-ranking military official, Golan should have been dressed and ready early that morning, even before the Prime Minister was aware of the unfolding events.
In response, The Democrats party issued a strong condemnation via X (formerly Twitter). They denounced Sara Netanyahu's statements as "lies and slander," asserting that while Netanyahu was "running to put on makeup and look for excuses," Golan "charged forward and saved lives."
The party further stated that spreading conspiracies against Major General Yair Golan and tarnishing his heroism on October 7th crosses a red line bordering on madness. They emphasized that facts will not change, regardless of attempts by the Netanyahu family and Channel 14 to rewrite them.
