Hitting back at Netanyahu, Bennett says now ‘the time for unity, not politics’
Former premier Naftali Bennett claps back at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for criticizing him over an op-ed he published revealing that he ordered a pair of attacks on Iran last year.
“When there are 1,400 dead, 140 Israeli hostages, 150,000 Israelis uprooted [from their homes]. This is the time for unity, not politics,” Bennett says in a statement. “With the help of God, we will know better days.”
