After Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu demanded last night that the media investigate who is behind a series of billboards and TV ads demanding he resign, the organization comes forward.

The organization “Lochamei Kippur,” veterans of the 1973 Yom Kippur War, says the campaign is funded by public donations.

“Bibi [Netanyahu], you are the head, you are guilty,” they say in a statement posted on social media. “You asked where the campaign funding comes from? Here’s a scoop — from public donations.”

The organization claims that more than 70 percent of the public is “demanding you resign,” and it calls on others to donate to the campaign.
