In a post on Twitter, MK Stav Shafir attacked Netanyahu, writing:

"Two weeks ago Netanyahu explained that he was transferring money to Hamas as part of a strategy aimed at separating Hamas from the PA and preventing the establishment of a Palestinian state. So the right-wing ministers who are busy now on Twitter about the need to eliminate Hamas are big in shouts but very small in security - in effect, they strengthened Hamas and chose to accept a reality of terrorism."
