Podcast Launch of Miluimnikim Forum

Good afternoon, friends. I'm very happy to be here.

We're actually launching the first podcast of the Likud Reservists Forum.

When we founded the Reservists Forum, we wanted to come and say, come on, this isn't what you hear all day

in the media, where all day it's something bad and negative. We want

to make another voice heard.

I remember, when we were in the kindergarten, we were looking at the children's pictures,

probably at the entrance

to the kindergarten. Suddenly, I see one of our friends bursting into

tears, crying like crazy.

So he says to me, "Look what these children went through."

Then he says to me, we're here now for this, to restore the homeland, this

thing.

Oh, wow, wow.

Keep going, keep going.

Glad to see you.

When my battalion was struck by the disaster of 21 fatalities

in Al-Mu'azi,

I really remember it. It was a truly sad moment,

but, but we kept going.

We feel that you're leading this well.

We discussed several issues that needed addressing, and you're taking it seriously, and we're very…

We encourage you to keep going.

The strength of this people truly is a gold mine.

I have to tell you, you hold the lifeline of the people of Israel.

They thought they would surround it on seven fronts.

Do you know of another country fighting on seven fronts and winning on every

front? They didn't believe it,

but I believed in you.

It was a stage when the whole world was against the United States

and everything, and that was the psychological barrier that had to be broken,

to capture Philadelphi. You also came and visited us there at—

the guys from Giv'at. You also have a picture with Shilo at the end here.

Oh, I saw that.

He keeps it. You were both on the vest.

We asked you about Lebanon, if you remember.

Right, right.

What did I tell you about Lebanon?

That it would take patience, that it would come.

I said patience, right?

And that patience paid off, too.

You said you were proud of us, but we're proud of our wives and children back home,

knowing there's someone at home supporting us. We know they also help us a lot with all

this burden the government placed on the reservists.

It's something that gives you a moment to breathe.

It's three things. First, the courage of the male and female fighters, the courage

of the families and the people, and the decisions. We have done most of the work.

There is still work left to do, and that is what I wish for us in the coming year.

That we take the tremendous achievements we have attained thanks to you and complete

them, and permanently remove this threat

from above our heads. There is no single people, no single country in the world that can

do this, because it does not have one people, no people has what we have here.

I want to thank you personally, because people often do not know how to say it.

Thank you so, so much for managing to endure this. I'm sure it wasn't easy, and thank you

very much, truly.

The people of Israel live.

And the people of Israel burn. We have the power

to simply strike our enemies and ensure our future.

And I came here to

offer you.
