“My cousin is there. My cousin’s wife is there. There are babies Jews, and Arabs.”
Gil Dikman, an Israeli with family members held captive in Gaza, publicly responded to statements made by Galit Distel Atbaryan, a Likud Party and Knesset member who had controversially suggested that “Gaza should be wiped off the face of the earth.”
During a meeting in the Knesset, which included relatives of Israelis held by Hamas in Gaza, Dikman emphasised the value of life in Gaza, stating that his own family and others reside there.
He urged for a reconsideration of destructive rhetoric and appealed for a focus on the well-being and existence of people in Gaza.
Dikman also criticised Minister of Interior Moshe Arbel for not engaging with the families of captives and reiterated his call to prioritise life over destructive slogans.
