Hostage mother heckles Netanyahus outside Jerusalem residence

While police appear to have blocked off Azza Street in Jerusalem to prevent a large protest against the government’s Gaza City takeover plans, officers have allowed hostage Matan Zengauker’s mother Einav along with a handful of other supporters to pass through to demonstrate outside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s official residence.

“Sara (Netanyahu), come out here and tell me what you promised me in Nir Oz. There are other fathers and mothers here too. Come out and tell me how you lied to my face, how you told me that you were going to bring a deal that returns everyone home. Come out and tell me how you lied to me. You know how to meet with families behind closed doors, away from the media, away from everything, where you sell them complete nonsense. Enough!” Zangauker can be heard shouting.

“I have one interest: for this country to wake up and bring back my child along with 47 other hostages — both living and deceased — and to bring our soldiers home,” she continues.

Netanyahu “doesn’t like hearing us here, so he ran away like a coward. We will follow him everywhere, day and night. It’s over. The gloves are off. If he stops at nothing and sends our precious, brave, heroic soldiers to fight while our hostages are being used as human shields, he is not worthy of being prime minister!” she adds.
