Bennett praises Israeli heroism in fighting terrorists

Education Minister Naftali Bennett praises Israeli heroism in the wave of terror since October.

In his Memorial Day remarks, the minister mentions by name victims Nehemia Lavi, Tuvia Yanai Weissman, and Dafna Meir, all of whom were killed protecting other people.

“This year was the year of Israel’s heroism. Of simple people. The heroism of the man on the street who could have run away, but took a guitar and set out toward an armed terrorist,” he says.

“This year, the Jewish people all deserve a medal,” the minister adds.
