LIKUD MK DAVID BITAN ORDERS RELATIVE OF DEAD HOSTAGE EJECTED FROM KNESSET
MEETING
CHAIR OF ECONOMICS COMMITTEE CLASHES WITH HANNAH COHEN, AUNT OF SLAIN CAPTIVE
INBAR HAIMAN, OVER HER LENGTHY ADDRESS; OTHER LAWMAKERS BLOCK HIS MOVE TO HAVE
HER KICKED OUT

Jerusalem, on November 11, 2024. (Yonatan Sindel/Flash90)
MK David Bitan ordered a relative of a dead hostage whose body is being held in
Gaza kicked out of a Knesset Economics Committee on Monday after she refused to
stop speaking when she went beyond her allotted time.
During the meeting, chairperson Bitan chided Hannah Cohen, the aunt of Inbar
Haiman, for speaking too long, saying she was “repeating herself” and that
others needed to speak.
When she continued talking and yelling at him, telling him that he would “hear
me again another 1,000 times,” he ordered her ejected.
“Bring the girl home and you won’t see me here again,” Cohen told him. Bitan
eventually relented under pressure from other committee members and let her
remain.
Haiman, 27, was kidnapped from the Nova music festival on October 7, 2023,
during the devastating attack on the south of the country led by the Palestinian
terror group Hamas. She has since been declared dead by the military, though her
body remains in Gaza.

It was not the first time Bitan, a member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s
ruling Likud party, had clashed with hostage relatives. Several weeks ago he
interrupted the testimony of Sari Gat, aunt of Carmel Gat, a hostage who was
executed in Hamas captivity, and told her to “be quick.”

“Excuse me?” fumed Gat. “They are there for a year, I can’t be brief, don’t you
understand that? Don’t you understand that people are in life-threatening
danger?”
“Don’t shout at me,” Bitan responded. “You are repeating yourself.”
On October 7 last year, Hamas led a massive attack on Israel that killed 1,200
people, mostly civilians, including 360 slain at the Nova music festival.
Thousands of terrorists rampaged murderously through communities, slaughtering
those they found, and took 251 people as hostages to the Gaza Strip.
Bridging the US-Israel divide
While the heart of The Times of Israel’s work takes place in Israel, so many of
Jerusalem’s actions are influenced by those in Washington’s halls of power.
As ToI’s US bureau chief, I work to gain access to decision-makers in the United
States government so our readers can understand the US-Israel relationship
beyond the platitudes evident in public statements.
I'm proud of our ability to inform without sensationalizing, our dedication to
be fast while ensuring accuracy, and our determination to present Israel's
entire, complex story.
Your support through The Times of Israel Community helps us continue to keep
readers around the world properly informed about the critical Israel-US
relationship. Do you appreciate our news coverage? If so, please join the ToI
Community today.
