Moshe Feiglin, chairman of the Zehut party, released a sharp video attacking former IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eisenkot. Feiglin's criticism was prompted by Eisenkot's remarks regarding armed civilians entering Arab villages. Feiglin vehemently rejected Eisenkot's statements, calling him a "liar, inciter, and seducer." He challenged Eisenkot to name a single Arab killed by a settler in the past decade, stating, "You have no name."
Feiglin also directly blamed Eisenkot and the past IDF command chain for the failures leading up to the October 7th Hamas attacks. "If people were killed, it is solely because of you and the line of chiefs of staff who canceled the ground forces and that there was no army on October 7th," Feiglin asserted. He accused Eisenkot of introducing "the most insane progressive values into the IDF more than any other chief of staff."
Feiglin concluded his attack by accusing Eisenkot and his colleagues of being behind a "passive military coup" in 2023 that directly led to the events of October 7th. He warned against anyone like Eisenkot gaining power in Israel.
