MK Ben-Gvir of Otzma Yehudit was interviewed on Reshet Bet Radio ahead of his ascent to the Temple Mount in honor of Jerusalem Day and Hamas threats in lieu of his actions.
"[Israel giving in to their threats] provides them with additional motivation," he said. "What if Hamas tells us to close of the entire State?" he asked. "Today it's the Temple Mount, tomorrow it'll be Damascus Gate, Yaffo, Lod and Tel Aviv."
