Former Defense Minister Amir Peretz says that it is necessary to live in Sderot in order to understand the gap between Prime Minister Netanyahu's statements and the reality on the ground. According to him, residents of the Gaza vicinity are trained and backing the IDF. But knowing that the government does not have a policy and all the effort is to achieve temporary quiet causes severe feelings. MK Peretz stressed that it was time to think about a broad and courageous political move and stop putting responsibility on the security forces
Every military effort requires a political effort on its side. We get an escape from responsibility and quarrels among cabinet members. This does not create a solution, the words of the former defense minister.
