Bibi Netanyahu testified today before an inquiry on the Meron Lab Ba’omer disaster, which killed 45 men and boys in April 2021.
“I didn’t know that there was a critical safety problem,” Netanyahu stated. “I take responsibility for what was in front of me, and that was the epidemiological disaster that I prevented.”
“I cannot take responsibility for something I did not know,” the former premier told the state-appointed commission.
Former judge Dvora Berliner, the commission’s chairman, asked Netanyahu to explain why the crowding issue at Mount Meron hadn’t been dealt with during his 12 years in office.
“I have a report for the State Comptroller from 2008 and another one from 2014 that repeats the same data,” Berliner noted. “You were prime minister for nearly 12 years. This issue has been floating around for 12 years. How do you explain that the issue has not been addressed?”
Netanyahu replied: “I reject that assumption, your honor. The prime minister doesn’t get involved in these things. I dealt only with the procedural side of the revelry, not the safety side.”
He asserted that he received “countless letters and requests” as prime minister and “only actually saw a small fraction of them.”
“The are hundreds, if not thousands of safety issues even right now. A disaster could happen at any moment. You can’t respond to every single one,” he added. “These things happen.” (i24 News)
“I cannot take responsibility for something I did not know,” Huh? You did not know that your police are so evil and have no problem massacring 45 people in order to accomplish their goal – of controlling Meron? It’s a miracle they didn’t do the same at the grave of the Or HaChaim Hakadosh. They tried but were chased away by the Yerushalayimer Kanoim who chased them away from Meron this year too.
The secular government was jealous of the yearly beautiful event in Meron.
The safety problem occurred when the government meddled into affairs that’s none of their business. KEEP AWAY FROM CHAREIDI AFFAIRS.

These things only happen when the government pokes their filthy nose in. You can’t deny the fact that the government was behind the murder. Maybe Bibi was kicked out as punishment.
