Dr. Avishai Ben Haim, a panelist on Channel 14's 'The Patriots' program, addressed the third anniversary of the October 7 massacre. He claimed that the communities of the Gaza Envelope, which he called "the holy Jewish communities," protected the State of Israel with their bodies. According to him, "Were it not for these communities of the kibbutzim and the towns and the development towns of these frontier settlements near Gaza, were it not for them who protected the State of Israel with their bodies." He called for saluting the residents of Be'eri, Ofakim, Sderot, Nahal Oz, and Nir Oz, and all the towns in the area. Ben Haim described the event as "a disaster truly on a level that makes the heart bleed," and compared it to the savagery of the Tatars and the Crusades. He concluded that the residents of the Envelope "saved the State of Israel with their bodies and the lives of their families."
