Extreme left-wing organization “Breaking the Silence” responded to statements made on Thursday morning by Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon.
“Today, during an interview with Army Radio, Defense Minister Ya’alon was forced to admit to the nation of Israel that Israeli soldiers and fighters who oppose the occupation and break the silence are not spies or traitors, and they are not holding on to any state secrets. Ya’alon took back the dangerous and embarrassing political accusation regarding Breaking the Silence being a group of traitors, and now it is only a matter of time before he will be forced to take back the claim about holding on to intelligence.”
