“He shouts: ‘Netanyahu, I don’t understand how this happened, but I trust you to get me out of here.’ Stay there. You are not a child over the age of 18, not an elderly person and not a chronic patient. You are “just” a soldier who was willing to sacrifice himself. So you stay there in the tunnels, in the dark, when you are wounded, who knows if Survives.
“I turn to you, Prime Minister Netanyahu and remind you: Matan is a heroic soldier, but first of all he is a child who grew up in the State of Israel and its values, who gave me the title of mother 21 years ago. And you, Netanyahu, gave me the title of mother to a child kidnapped in hell nine months ago.”
Earlier this evening, in the statement of the abductees’ families at Shaar Begin, relatives of the abductees’ families spoke. They called on Netanyahu to approve a deal, saying: “Netanyahu, we have seen how deals are repeatedly botched in the moments of truth. Our hearts were shattered each time. For once, put the good of the country and the citizens as a top priority, over your personal good. Galant, Deri, Heads of the Defense Department And the negotiation team, all eyes are on you: don’t let him torpedo the deal once more.”
They added: “An overwhelming majority of the public supports the return of the abductees and ending the war now – the people are in favor of a deal, the people want to save lives. We call on the public, if there is one moment when you need to get up from the couch and make a voice – that moment has arrived! It’s now. Go to the streets, exert all pressure , don’t let go.”
