Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took part Tuesday in a closed activists' conference held at the Sdot Negev Regional Council, and spoke, among other things, about the security situation in the region.
"We have an interest with a theological junta that has taken over 2 million people, there were 3,000 armed members before the unfortunate, tragic disengagement, and today there are 65,000 armed people," Netanyahu was quoted as saying on Channel 10 news.
The prime minister added, "They are committed to our annihilation and therefore they are not in the political sense, but they understand very well our other messages."
