Defense Minister Benny Gantz responded today (Friday) to the coalition agreements signed between Likud and Otzma Yehudit, headed by the appointment of Itamar Ben Gabir as Minister of Internal Security with expanded powers. In his words, he attacked Netanyahu and Ben Gvir and claimed that this was a “government attack”.
“This morning we were informed of an agreement between Ben Gvir and Netanyahu that marks the direction in which the next government is going: dismantling the government’s powers according to political necessity into fragments of ministries,” Gantz wrote on Facebook. “The dismantling of operational frameworks in the IDF, which also includes damage to the operational functioning of the IDF and the Israel Police.”
According to him, “There are three serious omissions here that are being created before our eyes: in the security aspect – the intention to split the capabilities and powers of the Civil Administration between Moshebat and the Treasury and the exercise of the security force in the IOS between Moshebat and the Ministry of Defense (the apparent ‘Ministry of National Security’) may To bring severe international pressure on us regarding the ‘de facto annexation’ of Judea and Samaria without us gaining anything – neither in security nor in the field. This will create a significant administrative and security weakness.”
“The idea of creating a ‘private army’ for Laban Gavir in Judea and Samaria is dangerous for the use of force, and will create real security malfunctions” is valid. “In recent years, I have led the processes of full and close coordination between the IDF, the Israel Police, the Shin Bet and the IDF under the IDF. The idea of breaking down the use of force into factors will lead to contradictions on the ground and a serious security failure for which Netanyahu will be responsible. When the commander of the command will have to use the force and will not have the power of the MGB at his disposal, or when the MGB will receive an order to act in the IOSH, contrary to the need for the use of force decided by the commander of the command and the Chief of Staff – security chaos will be created.”

“In terms of governance – when I hear about the apparent agreements between Netanyahu and the extreme right and the intention to break up the government into fragments of ministries, I remember that I warned Netanyahu already when we formed the government 4 years ago, that the creation of dummy ministries would weaken governance. That is why I insisted that Blue and White should not have meaningless ministries Like the ‘Digital Ministry’, the ‘Ministry of Higher Education’ or the ‘Ministry of Water.’
“In the aspect of national security – Netanyahu knows that national security is the sum total of the state’s capabilities – security, military, diplomatic, legal, economic and social. Instead of pouring powers into the Ministry of Internal Security, as we proposed in the plan laid out by Gadi Eisenkot to strengthen the police, instead of working to create a better final legal leg , he changes names and gives honors. Be that as it may, national security has one person responsible for its components, and he is the prime minister who is responsible for synchronizing all national efforts. We can only see Netanyahu’s move as an admission that the real prime minister will be Ben Gvir.”

“Comrades, Netanyahu chose disgrace – which will lead to a security danger” he concluded. “The future of the State of Israel is more important than these whims, and therefore the state camp, in coordination with the other parties to whom the stability of the State of Israel is precious, will act against the security, administrative, and national attack that has been created before our eyes. Israeli society. This is the order of the hour.”
