Bezalel Smotrich, chairman of the Religious Zionism party, criticized a Supreme Court decision regarding military operations in the West Bank refugee camps. The court had reportedly pushed for progress and a timeline for concluding operations and returning Palestinians to their homes in the camps.
Speaking at a conference, Smotrich stated, "In a year, the court will obligate the IDF to return Gazans, and will open its doors to Hezbollah terrorists." He asserted that "Israel's security is not justiciable. The army is responsible for security."
Smotrich's remarks suggest a fundamental disagreement with judicial intervention in military matters, particularly concerning operations in Palestinian refugee camps in Judea and Samaria.
