Ofer Winter, chairman of the "Am Israel" party, sharply criticized the Israeli government's policy regarding Gaza on Tuesday, particularly in light of recent warnings about potential attacks and attempts to abduct soldiers.
Winter questioned the government's reactive stance, asking, "Why on earth are we waiting?!" He specifically cited Prime Minister Netanyahu's statements about signs of impending attacks and Defense Minister Katz's warnings about attempts to kidnap a soldier in Gaza.
He called for an end to the policy of "containment" and "rounds" of conflict, invoking the principle "He who comes to kill you, rise early to kill him." Winter argued that despite significant achievements in the ongoing war, Israel has not yet achieved a decisive victory and remains "imprisoned by a concept." He urged for immediate action to dismantle the enemy, rather than waiting.
Winter outlined his party's approach, stating that under their leadership, Israel would "come to decide, to dismantle them, not to wait, to initiate." He further elaborated on his party's vision, which includes "emptying the pool" and bringing about "migration" and "decisiveness," asserting that "what was will not be."
