Mansour Abbas, chairman of the Arab Israeli party Ra'am, has revealed a surprising claim about Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Abbas stated in an interview with "Walla!" that during a 2021 meeting at the Prime Minister's Residence in Balfour, Netanyahu shared his relationship with former Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar. According to Abbas, Netanyahu described an understanding between himself and Sinwar and expressed satisfaction with it, a stark contrast to Netanyahu's current public rhetoric against Arab parties.
Abbas criticized Netanyahu for portraying Arab parties as a security threat and inciting against Arab citizens, while allegedly telling him in private about a mutual understanding with Sinwar. The Ra'am chairman also held Netanyahu responsible for the October 7th events, attributing the disaster not just to intelligence failure but to the Prime Minister's approach and trust in the wrong person regarding Hamas and its leader in Gaza.
Abbas intends to present these claims, which he says he heard directly from Netanyahu, to a state commission of inquiry investigating the October 7th massacre if one is established. The Ra'am chairman also commented on the political landscape, indicating that Ra'am is prepared to support Gadi Eisenkot's political initiative and potentially join a future government.
