  3. That terrorist took the phone and hid it in the place where he claims he was injured, and the device had to be removed – but we are told that this is an act of sodomy and rape. It was about something completely different, but the military prosecutor repeatedly accepts the terrorists’ versions.

  4. I wouldn't rule out the option the terrorists harmed each other, did to one another the filthy acts that they are used to, or were educated to do.

  5. A situation where masked military police raid an IDF base is unacceptable to me and I will not allow it to happen again. Our soldiers are not criminals and this despicable pursuit of our soldiers is unacceptable to me.

Our hostages in Gaza receive abuse, not visits and concern for rights. These visits harm deterrence, negotiations with Hamas, raise the morale of the terrorists, may lead to prison riots, and beyond that it is a violation of Israeli sovereignty, and an opening for international intervention in other issues in the future. No state that respects its sovereignty and security would allow this to happen. The British act as if the Mandate government exists, and we cooperate with this.
