Bennett defends remarks calling for defeating High Court and Hamas
Naftali Bennett defends his Army Radio remarks from earlier today in which the New Right co-chair said, “We want to be a strong right that defeats the High Court of Justice and defeats Hamas.”
“My intention was clear, and the leftist attack is predictable and hypocritical. In a choice between surrendering to the High Court of Justice and defeating Hamas, we choose to defeat Hamas, the Arutz Sheva news site quotes Bennett as saying. The education minister has been critical in the past of the justice system for “tying the hands” of soldiers in combat with Palestinian fighters.
