Yinon Magal, host of the Channel 14 program 'The Patriots,' fiercely criticized the authors of the book "Mr. Abandonment" (מר הפקרה), calling them "bloodletters" for what he described as a smear campaign against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Magal emphasized the timing of the book's release during wartime, when soldiers are fighting and bereaved families are mourning.
During the broadcast, Magal referred to the book as a "full edition, the legacy of the one who abandoned the hostages," and noted it includes "dozens of writers." He specifically named Tami Yarden, Professor Anita Shapira, Aharon Chechanover, Zruia Shalev, Tamir Pardo, Malka Piotrkovski, Orna Banai, Professor Aba Elov, and Daniel London Dekel as individuals who "should be remembered for all eternity as bloodletters." Magal also mentioned the recent discovery of six dead hostages in a tunnel under Rafah.
Magal condemned the book's publication and accompanying campaign as "lies" and "evil," questioning how anyone could reach such a point of "bestiality" and "disgust" to label a person with such accusations. He highlighted the ongoing sacrifices of Israeli soldiers, bereaved families, and those suffering from injuries, PTSD, and loss of limbs. Magal also stated that individuals close to US President Biden have denied the book's claims.
