Benjamin Netanyahu gov’t failing in its war on terror, former Likud minister says
Former Likud minister Gideon Saar insisted that he has not yet decided to return to political life, but that did not stop him from slamming the government’s handling of the current wave of terror.
Speaking in an Army Radio interview, Sa’ar attacked the government for what he said were its failures in providing security to Israel’s citizens. “It seems that the handling (of the security situation) has not been successful, and up to this point, has been quite a failure. Let’s first state things clearly, and then perhaps we can get to a better place.”
Sa’ar said that he, like many Israelis, had voted for the Likud and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for security reasons. “As far as results and actions are concerned on the security front in the last six months, we are not seeing it.”
