Hostage’s mother: 'They shut me up because I wanted to support the cabinet'

Iris Chaim, mother of Yotam, a hostage in Gaza, disapproves of the conduct at the war cabinet meeting held on Tuesday in Herzliya.

"We came to get answers from the war cabinet, and after a minute in the room I realized that I had come to a war, a war well managed by interested parties who are taking advantage of the families and trying to put a rift between us and the state," she said.

"People shut me up just because I wanted to express support for the cabinet, they beat people who wanted to express support for the cabinet," she recalled. "There were those who were leading them, shouting and cursing. 'Why did you come here?' they asked someone who said she trusts the state."

"This is how incitement begins. I continue to believe in taking the right path, and I ask you to understand that as the mother of a hostage I am important, but no more than any mother of a soldier who is in Gaza. Our war is with Hamas, not with each other. I say, 'Enough!' to the Abducted and Missing Families Forum. You have already done enough. Release us."

During the meeting, which started two hours late, people were yelling at each other, making harsh accusations, and there were even physical altercations between the participants. One of the claims made at the meeting was that the war does not promote the release of the hostages, so Israel must return to a ceasefire.

At the meeting, Prime Minister Netanyahu addressed the families’ despair, while clarifying that the possibility of "everyone for everyone" is not realistic. During the meeting, participants yelled at him and at Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and were cursing.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the agitators firing up the hostage families were Hamas moles. I mean who benefits from a cease fire?

I agree. Even after the "Peace Activists" were murdered in cold blood these simpletons still do not and will not ever get it.

As a side note, look how the NYT's headlined the article, notice the wording, "Some of those caught up in the attack by Palestinian fighters ". So being murdered is being "caught up in the attack", I deplore these people.

Good people, soldiers and civilians, are killed in war....the war must be one or you all die, not just a few good people. Keep warring.

When you’re a globalist, you’re a leftard.

When you lie for the purpose of promoting war for profit, you’re a leftard.

“Fighters”? Assassination and murder are not “fighting”. Holding a 14-year-old girl down to be gang-raped is not “fighting”. Decapitating babies is not even human, let alone “fighting.” By comparison, Sir Robin the Brave is a hero.
