Dozens of former senior members of the former defense establishment – including chiefs of staff, retired Mossad and GSS officials and many generals – gathered today (Friday) in protest in front of Foreign Minister Yair Lapid’s home in Tel Aviv, in a clear call to cabinet members: The cabinet table by the Minister of Defense and the Minister of Justice to establish a state commission of inquiry into the submarine and vessel affair. “
The Movement for the Quality of Government and the Security Forum stated: “It has been more than two months since the decision-makers’ proposal was submitted to the government table and the delay in discussing it is extremely unreasonable, especially when the State of Israel’s national security is at stake. We demand to know – who has a reason to dissolve the investigation of the truth in what appears to be a case of serious security corruption in the history of the State of Israel? “
The movement and the security forum also demand that the mandate of the commission of inquiry include all eight sub-cases – including the case of approving the sale of advanced submarines to Egypt behind the back of the defense establishment, such as approving the purchase of additional submarines and shield ships.
“We expect you to put aside your political interests, act solely for the national interest and promote without further delay the establishment of a commission of inquiry, which will remove the cloud of corruption that lies above the sanctuary of the national security of the State of Israel. The excuses are over, it’s your duty. ‘
