Bennett Challenges Netanyahu's Security Doctrine and Calls for Qatar to Be Named an Enemy

Former prime minister and Together party leader Naftali Bennett criticized the security doctrine presented by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on October 18. Bennett argued that Israel's security approach should be assessed through government actions rather than speeches. He alleged that Netanyahu was transferring twice as much money to Hamas as before October 7, putting the amount at NIS 250 million a month. Bennett also urged Israel to declare Qatar an enemy and remove Qatari personnel from Gaza and Israel.
