Today, Sunday, Chairman of the National Security Committee, Member of the Knesset, Brigadier General Zvika Vogel, did not rule out the presence of traitors from within behind the Hamas attack last October 7 on the settlements surrounding the Gaza Strip.

Fogel, who is from the Otzma Yehudit party (Jewish Force), said in statements to the Hebrew newspaper Maariv, “Does it occur to you that for the past twenty years we did not know what was happening in the Gaza Strip? "Someone here knew what was going to happen."

He added, "I am saying that there is something that, if we do not discover it in the future, we may deepen the gap we are in between the possibility of a conspiracy and the possibility that we are all stupid. I prefer to think that we are not stupid."

He continued, “We cannot know anything, nothing.” We got into the car of the nuclear scientist in Iran and killed him. We do not know what is happening in the sector. It is something much worse, and someone must investigate it.”

Vogel said, “When the head of the Shin Bet (Ronen Bar) says that an investigation committee must be formed, I understand that there are many parties that have begun to worry about themselves instead of the future of the country.”

He added, "There is something stinking here. I want someone to discover it. It cannot be just a perception."

He continued, "If this is not true, we will have to change entire units in the army and generations of leaders who were not wrong in their perception. They are simply irresponsible and unprofessional, and they have sinned against the State of Israel."

He added, “I prefer not to think that, and I prefer to think that someone betrayed us from within.”

He continued, "Perhaps we will have to discover this truth in the future. I do not know which is better, to discover that there were traitors here or that there is a group of unprofessional people."

Vogel concluded his statements by saying, “I cannot rule out that there is a conspiracy here. We cannot be so irresponsible. I hope I am wrong.”

On the seventh of last October, Hamas launched an attack on Israeli military points and settlements around the Gaza Strip, during which it killed about 1,200 Israelis, wounded more than 5,430, and captured at least 239. It exchanged dozens of them with Israel during a temporary humanitarian truce that lasted 7 days and ended early. December 2023.

For 114 days, the Israeli occupation army has been waging a devastating war on the Gaza Strip, leaving 26,422 dead and 65,087 injured, 70% of whom are children and women, and causing massive destruction and an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe.
