Yair Golan, Chairman of the Democrats party, declared that the assassination of "Father Haniyeh" was a mistake that did not serve Israel's interests. Speaking at a cultural event in Rishon Lezion, Golan also criticized Prime Minister Netanyahu's policies regarding Hamas in Gaza and the conscription of Haredim into the IDF. He suggested Netanyahu's operational freedom in Iran is limited and that the government's inaction in Gaza perpetuates Hamas rule.

Yair Golan, chairman of the Democrats party, stated that the assassination of the "Father Haniyeh" was a mistake, not because he didn't deserve to die, but because it did not serve Israel's interests. Golan made these remarks on Friday at a cultural event in Rishon Lezion, where he discussed various security and political issues, including the possibility of an attack in Iran, the continued rule of Hamas in Gaza, and the conscription of Haredim into the IDF.

Regarding the possibility of an attack in Iran, Golan expressed a lack of trust in Prime Minister Netanyahu but assessed that Netanyahu's operational freedom is currently limited. He also criticized Netanyahu's handling of the Hamas situation in Gaza, stating that the Prime Minister's refusal to establish an alternative governing body perpetuates Hamas's rule, which he called a crime against the IDF and Israeli citizens.

Golan also addressed the issue of Haredi conscription, describing it as an "unbearable organized idleness" funded by the productive public through taxes. He further commented on the return of hostages, asserting that their abandonment by Hamas and the "government of malice" was followed by their release due to the efforts of those who did not give up until the last hostage was returned.
