Former Knesset member Moshe Feiglin on Tuesday responded harshly to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s decision to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza.
Speaking in an interview with Channel 14, Feiglin said: “Ultimately, this aid is direct aid to the enemy – let’s stop lying to ourselves. Providing aid to the enemy while we send our soldiers to fight is a crime against IDF soldiers, no less than that.”
It should be noted that Feiglin’s grandson, Yair Levin, H’yd, was killed in Rafah last year.
“Every child in Gaza is the enemy. And I’ll tell you more than that. Every child, every baby in Gaza is the enemy. The enemy is not Hamas, and it’s not Hamas’s military wing, like the military prosecutor tells us— that we’re not allowed to harm Hamas unless they’re part of the military wing.”
“Every child in Gaza is the enemy. We need to conquer Gaza and settle it – and not one Gazan child should remain there. There’s no other victory.”
“We have a war with the Gazan terrorist entity that we established with our own hands in Oslo and the disengagement. Every child that you are now giving milk to, will rape your daughters and slaughter your children in 15 years.”
Regarding the fact that Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich justified the decision [due to international pressure], he said: “Suddenly everyone is aligning themselves according to political considerations. I’m sorry, but the lives of our soldiers are much more important to me than political considerations.”
Likud MK Moshe Saada expressed similar sentiments, telling Arutz Sheva that allowing aid into Gaza is unethical and a threat to Israeli soldiers.
“It is unacceptable that we send four divisions of soldiers to conquer Gaza and risk their lives while simultaneously giving Hamas the means to keep fighting,” he said. “Providing them with food is effectively giving them ammunition.”
When asked by Arutz Sheva about speculation that Netanyahu bowed to U.S. pressure, Saada responded: Trump said, ‘Open the gates of hell.’ Instead, by sustaining Hamas, we are opening the gates of paradise for them.”
The UN announced on Tuesday that it has received authorization from Israel to allow another 100 humanitarian aid trucks into Gaza.

How can one say that this isn’t genocidal?
Every child that you starve in Gaza will serve as an impetus for antisemitism and hate against Jews worldwide. Every child you starve gives ammunition to those that hate Israel and are attempting to turn into a pariah state. Expelling Gazans from.Gaza would just spread antisemitism worldwide and hardly solve any problems. Moshe Feiglins comments are grotesque and wrong.
Poshuter: Feiglin’s comments here are correct and to the point. This is not genocidal, on the contrary, it’s a proper reaction of self defense to prevent the genocide of the 7 million+ Yidden in Eretz Yisroel. Crazy: Those who hate Israel and Jews will continue to hate them anyway as they always have (yes, even before Zionism existed). It wouldn’t solve any problems? So what do you advocate, not making any hishtadlus to avoid another Oct. 7 chas v’shalom?
To crazykanoiy, the sad reality is that the people who hate us will hate us regardless of whether we provide “humanitarian” aid to Gaza or not, or whatever decision we make, so let them hate us and do what is correct.
