Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and his Otzma Yehudit party have derided statements made by Gadi Eisenkot, chairman of the National Unity Party and former IDF Chief of Staff. Eisenkot had pledged that within 18 months of entering the Prime Minister's office, Hamas would no longer be in power. In response, Otzma Yehudit stated, "Gadi Eisenkot is sure the Jewish public is stupid."
The party further elaborated on what they described as behind-the-scenes decision-making during the war. They claimed that while Eisenkot was in the war cabinet, he demanded a complete halt to the fighting, capitulation to all of Hamas's demands, a total withdrawal from Gaza, and the release of all terrorists from Israeli prisons. They also stated he vehemently opposed the occupation of Rafah and entry into the Philadelphi Axis, as well as the occupation of the security zone in Lebanon.
Otzma Yehudit asserted that Eisenkot would have prevented victory, contrasting this with their own party's approach. "All the achievements in Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran only came after Eisenkot left the government and I entered the narrow war cabinet in his place," the party stated.
Finally, the party criticized the opposition's alleged willingness to lie in cooperation with Arab parties. "Now, as he is a candidate on behalf of Ahmad Tibi and Mansour Abbas, he promises you he will conquer Gaza. There is no limit to the lies of the Arab and left-wing camp led by Eisenkot," they concluded.
