Israel: IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eizenkot, while discussing security matters on Thursday, responded to the domestic criticism leveled against IDF, saying that more force and roadblocks won’t cause terrorism to disappear.
Regarding the criticism directed at the IDF, Eizenkot said, “Anyone who says that a little more force, and a few more roadblocks, and a few more attacks, will cause the phenomenon of terrorism to disappear – does not know what he is talking about.”
In another interview with Channel 10 News, which will air in full on Saturday night as well, Eizenkot addressed the criticism of his predecessor Benny Gantz’s performance during the counter-terrorism Operation Protective Edge in 2014.
