Ben Gvir: Netanyahu must fire Galant and Gantz and expel the Palestinians from Gaza

Israeli Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben Gvir, said on Sunday that the head of the “National Camp” bloc and member of the War Cabinet, Benny Gantz, “wants to lead an old vision and has been calling for this for a long time.”


This one, who hosted Abu Mazen, brought us theories like this and others, and I refer this to the Prime Minister, as he has lost time to end this matter. I call on Netanyahu to fire Gallant and Gantz. "This is a right-wing government."


Ben Gvir’s statements came in response to a speech by Gantz yesterday, in which he gave Netanyahu until June 8 to develop a strategic action plan to continue the war on Gaza, hinting at his withdrawal from the government, and demanded that Netanyahu develop and approve a plan aimed at “returning the hostages and overthrowing the government.” Hamas, disarming the Gaza Strip, establishing an international administration to manage Gaza civilianly, returning the residents of the north to their homes by the first of next September, advancing normalization with Saudi Arabia, and adopting a plan for all Israelis to serve in the military ranks of the army.


Ben Gvir called for the expulsion of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip, which he described as “encouraging Palestinian migration,” and the establishment of settlements there. He considered that “there is no other alternative. If there is no Jewish settlement inside Gaza, rockets will continue to fall in Sderot, Netivot, and Ashkelon. There is no vacuum in this country.” This is very clear,” he said in an interview with the Ynet website today.

This is something Very clear,” he said in an interview with the Ynet website today.


In an interview conducted with him on Radio 103FM, also today, Len Gover attacked the war cabinet, and said, “The cabinet time and again drags the country into losses, both in the north and in the south. The members of the cabinet put spokes in the wheels. And if one of its senior members (i.e. Gantz asked the United States to hold meetings, and after that we discovered cold winds on the part of the Americans. We realize that he did not support the policy of the Israeli government, and he met with Blinken and Austin, and the next day they changed their skin.


He added, "I do not remember that Gantz and Eisenkot led a war line until the end in Rafah. I remember exactly the opposite, in Rafah as well as in the north, and their concepts are old concepts, the old perception. What do you expect from someone who hosted Abu Mazen in his home?"


Regarding the differences between the Netanyahu government and the Biden administration, Ben Gvir said, “Enough with these fears. We should say to Biden that ‘We love you, we appreciate you, we have kidnapped men and women in Gaza and no fuel will enter there. And the next day, the plan is that the entire Gaza Strip is ours. And no There is any party that will be there and manage the affairs of Gaza, and I do not depend on the Egyptians and Qataris to encourage immigration, as some of the Gazans want to leave there.”


Regarding the possibility of international arrest warrants against Israeli officials, Ben Gvir said, "Let them be issued. They will not scare me. I am not afraid to talk about settlements in Gaza. There is no other possibility."


He added, "It is possible to win over Hamas and Hezbollah, and this depends on us. The missiles are falling, but the issue for me is not the missiles, but rather that we do not use our strength until the end. We should have been inside Rafah. Instead of Netanyahu surrounding himself with people like me, he surrounds "I told him that he had to decide whether he would choose my path or their path."
