Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said that the majority of Israelis want to stop the war, allow aid in, and withdraw from the Gaza Strip because it is Palestinian land, stressing that only US President Donald Trump can do this.
Olmert explained that the United States and Europe supported Israel in responding to the October 7, 2023, attack, based on its right to self-defense, as he put it.
Olmert added that everyone knew this war would put many civilians in danger, but he said that "this was 18 months ago, while today we need to stop the war, release prisoners in exchange for Palestinian prisoners, and withdraw forces from Gaza because it is Palestinian land."
Olmert emphasized that continuing the war would achieve no goal and would endanger the lives of prisoners and lead to the killing of more Palestinians. He emphasized the need to stop the fighting and not endanger anyone who did not participate in the October 7 attack.
