Social Equality Minister May Golan calls for Israeli settlements to be built in Gaza, making her the second Likud minister to do in 24 hours.
“It is a great privilege to celebrate the achievements we’ve made in recent years in this government, and God willing to issue a clear call that we will settle in all parts of the Land of Israel including Gaza and in every place where the holy land of Israel should be settled,” Golan says during an event with the Nachala settlement organization.
Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikli made similar comments yesterday, also during a meeting with Nachala officials, stating that building Israeli settlements in the northern border area of Gaza should be part of Likud’s election platform.
