Former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett expressed strong disapproval of statements made by former Knesset member Yinon Magal, who suggested that the families of hostages held in Gaza should apologize to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The comments came during an interview on the program "Meeting with Ronny Kovan" on Kan 11. When presented with Magal's remarks, Bennett reacted with visible surprise and stated, "What you just said, that gets me going. To say sentences like that, he sold his soul to the devil. He was a good man once." Magal, who served in the 20th Knesset as part of Bennett's Jewish Home party, had reportedly called for the families of hostages to apologize to Netanyahu. When asked by Kovan if Magal's actions were motivated by financial gain, Bennett responded concisely, "Power, money, honor." The interview segment was recorded recently, and the full episode is scheduled to air on Saturday night at 9:30 PM on Kan 11 and Kan BOX.
