Otzma Yehudit says Gallant has betrayed the right, appeases terror

The far-right Otzma Yehudit party launches a scathing attack on Defense Minister Yoav Gallant amid reports he plans to call for the government to halt its judicial overhaul legislation.

“Galant removed himself from the right-wing camp. This is a minister elected by the votes of the right-wing, but in practice manages a different policy,” the party says in a statement.

“Gallant is responsible for the lack of response in Gaza, for the appeasement policy towards terror, for administrative detentions against right-wing activists, and today it turns out that he also stands by those who would stop the government’s activities and prevent the right wing from implementing its policies,” the statement says.

“The public elected a right-wing government to implement right-wing policies and we must continue with the legal reform.”
