Serve in the army - and then come back to me: Eisenkot's response to Mordechai David's question

During an election campaign at Metzitzim Beach, Yashar chairman Gadi Eisenkot refused to speak with right-wing activist Mordechai David and told him, "Go serve and come back to me," after David asked to ask a question about the war. David, who had previously harassed former Shin Bet chief Yoram Cohen, was removed from the event by police.

During an election campaign held today (Friday) by Yashar party chairman Gadi Eisenkot at Metzitzim Beach, aimed at appealing to a young audience, he encountered a conversation with right-wing activist Mordechai David. David approached the party chairman and asked to ask him "one question about the war." When asked, "How many weeks after the massacre Hamas carried out did you want to surrender and say - a deal at any cost?", Eisenkot replied that he is only willing to speak with people who have served in the military. "I only cooperate with those who served in the army - go serve and come back to me," he clarified. Earlier this week, during a house party of the party held by former Shin Bet chief Yoram Cohen, David arrived and waited outside the event so that at its end he could block Cohen as he left. Those present at the event who recognized David called police forces who arrived at the scene and removed him. Several weeks ago, another unusual incident occurred at a house party held by the former Shin Bet chief. During the meeting, one of the participants repeatedly interrupted Cohen's speech and accused him that during his tenure as Shin Bet chief, exceptional interrogation measures were approved against Jewish detainees, referring to the case of Amiram Ben Uliel, who was convicted of murdering the Dawabsha family in the village of Duma. The participant claimed that Cohen "sanctioned torture" as part of the investigation. According to documentation from the scene, the exchange led to a loud confrontation between the participant and other attendees in the hall, which almost escalated into a physical altercation. Cohen himself did not intervene in the confrontation, waited until he could continue his remarks, and continued the meeting.
