Former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett praised “start-up nation” Israel for filling the gaps that “institutional Israel” failed to close and specifically mentions helmets for IDF soldiers.
This is in direct contrast to public statements from the IDF Spokesperson’s office and the official line of the Israeli government.
Key Questions:
If former PM Naftali Bennett is aware of the situation regarding tactical equipment, who else in the leadership of Israel and the IDF is also aware?
Did PM Bennett consult with leaders of the IDF regarding these equipment gaps?
If there were “thousands” of these small initiatives, clearly there are members of Knesset who knew about this problem. Who knew?
Gen. Tamir Yadai, head of the Ground Forces in the IDF, threatened to arrest soldiers who accept donations. Has Gen. Yadai been in direct contact with PM Bennett? Would PM Bennett provide names to Gen. Yadai for potential arrests? How would that work?
