Negev, Galilee and National Resilience Minister Yitzhak Wasserlauf of Otzma Yehudit slams Defense Minister Yoav Gallant’s demand that Netanyahu eschews Israeli military and civilian rule following Hamas’s defeat.
The hardline legislator from the far-right Otzma Yehudit party tweets a famous picture of a Palestinian man in Ramallah showing off his bloodstained hands during the vicious lynching of a pair of Israeli reservists at the start of the Second Intifada.
“Palestinian actors backed by Arab countries,” he captions the image.
