Liberation: The Israeli Defense Minister uses the bodies of the Palestinians as a currency for any exchange

French newspaper Liberation said that the decision of the Israeli Defense Minister to send a bulldozer to retrieve the body of a Palestinian youth who was killed in Gaza aimed at preserving the bodies of the Palestinians for any possible exchange deal.

The newspaper correspondent said that the photos taken near the barbed wire separating the Gaza Strip from Israel, for a bulldozer accompanied by a tank as it entered the Gaza Strip and raised the corpse of a Palestinian youth, had shocked everyone and even the military correspondents of the Israeli press.

The reporter said that this horrific video, which was filmed by a small crowd of young men who were prevented by gunfire from approaching the bulldozer after trying to recover the body, resulted in extensive skirmishes between the Israeli army and Islamic Jihad.

Two young men from the Islamic Jihad movement approached, at dawn, the separation fence, before being monitored by the Israeli occupation army and calling them an anti-tank missile, killing one and wounding the other.

After that, the Israeli army sent a bulldozer to retrieve the remains of the Palestinian martyr, according to the latest directives issued by Defense Minister Naftali Bennett, a hawk and head of the extremist religious party, Yamina, and he decided to "store the bodies of terrorists" to use as a "currency" for exchange with the Palestinian resistance movement (Hamas). Which has held the bodies of two Israeli soldiers since the war in Gaza in 2014 and two other prisoners, according to the reporter.

At a time when the bulldozer video was circling the world on the communication networks, Islamic Jihad launched 20 missiles towards the areas adjacent to Gaza, and in return, the Israeli forces bombed several "military sites" of the Jihad movement in Gaza and the Syrian capital, Damascus.

I killed many Arabs!

The reporter pointed out that Naftali Bennett, who was appointed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu months ago in an interim government with very limited powers, was determined to use his appointment to launch a number of statements and provocative measures, as long as he was unable to wage his "war."

With the legislative elections approaching, this former soldier in the elite brigade who became a millionaire - as the reporter says - wants to preserve the image of the strong man who has been nurturing him since he entered politics, in line with his famous statement "I killed a lot of Arabs, and there is no problem with that", "I am tired of the criticism of the hypocrites on the left," he added in response to the bulldozer's tape.
