Tel Aviv, Jan. 9, ’25 (TNZ) More than 800 parents of IDF conscripts and reservists, fighting in Gaza, issued a public letter accusing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of irresponsibly and unnecessarily risking their children’s lives.
Therefore, they demand that he reach a deal to end the Gaza war.
In a letter to the Premier, the relatives accuse him of leading “a war without a horizon.
“Unlike anything in our history, the war is solely in the interest of your political survival”.
“Our sons and daughters set out on a necessary war brought upon us by your actions,” they claim.
“They lost many friends and are continuing to die and get injured, mentally and physically.”

The parents said the stated war goals motivated the troops, “first and foremost returning the hostages”.
But now, after more than a year, they assert the only way this will happen is to strike a deal with Hamas.
They alleged that the war was being extended aimlessly and that “the IDF has no reason to stay in Gaza, besides fulfilling messianic wishes of settling there”.
“We accuse you of abandoning the hostages and the soldiers,” the parents wrote.
They threatened to launch an “all-out struggle”. (Times of Israel)
