Professor Simcha Goldin, the father of soldier Hadar Goldin, whose body has been held by Hamas since 2014's Protective Edge counter-terror operation in Gaza, criticized Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu this morning after Netanyahu briefed relatives on efforts to return Israelis held by Hamas.

Goldin told Israel Defense Forces Radio, "I do not see how a prime minister who has not done anything for almost four years is now leading Israel to its 70th Independence Day."
