“My son had to cancel his marriage”: Benjamin Netanyahu is controversial by evoking “the personal cost” of war

The words made on Thursday, June 19 by Benjamin Netanyahu awakened anger and dismay in the ranks of the opposition and the relatives of the hostages still retained in the Gaza Strip. By moving to Beer-Sheva, a city in the south of the Hebrew state hit by Iranian missiles, Israeli prime minister wanted to recognize the “personal cost” of the war with Iran paid by his compatriots taking the example of his family and his son Avner, forced to … to postpone his marriage.

What the Israelis are currently experiencing “really makes me think of what the British went through the bombing,” the bombings led by the Germans during World War II in England, said Benjamin Netanyahu, adding that “they realized” that “people died” and that “the” families cried. “

According to a last report, Iranian missiles and missile and drones shots have killed 25 people in Israel since June 13. Israeli strikes have led to the death of 350 people in Iran, according to a report by the Iranian Ministry of Health published on Friday.

“A narcissist without any limit”

“Each of us pays a personal cost, and my family was not saved,” said Benjamin Netanyahu in front of the Soroka hospital in Beer-Sheva, beaten Thursday morning by an Iranian missile, according to words reported in particular by The Guardian.

“This is the second time that my son Avner had to cancel his marriage due to missile threats,” he added, also thinking about “the fiancee” of his son.

Initially, Netanyahu was supposed to marry last November, but the celebration of its union was postponed for security reasons. His marriage should have taken place on Monday, a few days after the beginning of the conflict between the Hebrew State and Iran.

These statements significantly caused the anger of Anat Angut, Matan Angut’s mother, a hostage retained in the Gaza Strip by Hamas from the attacks of October 7, 2023. In the social network X, he emphasized that this suffering “had not gone unnoticed with the family.”

Gilad Kariv, chosen for the KNESET and a member of the opposition to Benjamin Netanyahu, described the prime minister as “narcissistic without limits.” “I know many families who have not been forced to postpone a marriage, but it is because they will never celebrate weddings that were supposed to take place,” he scared.
