National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir says the Palestinian Authority and Hamas in the West Bank should be given the same treatment as Hamas in Gaza, following this morning’s terror attack at the “tunnels” checkpoint south of Jerusalem.
“We need to deal with Hamas in the West Bank, and the Palestinian Authority which has similar views to Hamas and its heads identified with Hamas’s massacre, exactly like we are dealing with Gaza,” says Ben Gvir, essentially calling for the elimination of the Palestinian Authority.
