Cabinet ally in Netanyahu’s government called for Palestinian village to be erased in tweet
village of Hawara, where earlier in the day two Israeli brothers were killed in a Palestinian shooting attack. Later in the week, Smotrich said the village should be erased – by Israeli forces and not by private citizens.
In a Hebrew tweet posted around the same time as his English thread, Netanyahu said even foreign diplomats make mistakes, an apparent reference to a report by Israeli Channel 12 that U.S. Ambassador to Israel Tom Nides made disparaging remarks about Smotrich ahead of his visit to Washington this week, saying he would “throw him off the plane,” if he could. A U.S. Embassy spokesperson denied he had made the remarks.
In his tweets, Netanyahu wrote that “it is important for all of us to work to tone down the rhetoric” amid a spiralling wave of violence between Israel and the Palestinians. Netanyahu then blasted the Palestinian Authority for not condemning Palestinian attacks against Israelis, and the international community for not demanding condemnations from the Palestinians.
