October Council Condemns Israeli Parliament's Approval of Political Inquiry Committee

The October Council strongly criticized the Israeli Knesset's approval of a political inquiry committee in its first reading. The council stated that while Knesset members saw this as a first reading, for them it felt like a second tearing, emphasizing the deep pain and betrayal they associate with the decision. They accused the current government of leading Israel blindly into one of its worst massacres since the Holocaust, declaring that it has lost all legitimacy.

The council described the state inquiry committee as a testament to the fallen soldiers who fought until their last drop of blood, a plea from hostages who perished in tunnels, and a demand from female observers who were burned alive and young women brutally raped during the government's watch. Their statement conveyed profound grief and condemnation of the government's handling of recent tragic events.
