In the midst of the war with Iran, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu kept quiet about being treated for cancer. Now the revelation raises questions about why the information was withheld during the conflict.
Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu states that he deliberately delayed the publication of his medical report for two months. According to him, this was done so that the data would not be used by Iran during the war, reports The Jerusalem Post.
It is about an early prostate cancer that was reportedly detected during a routine check-up, treated and then disappeared. But it is the cover-up during an ongoing war that is now attracting the most attention.
”I chose to delay the publication of the report so that it would not come out in the middle of the war and be used by Iran for propaganda.”, writes Netanyahu in a post on X.
Treated during the war
According to the information, Netanyahu underwent targeted treatment during the war, but continued to work during the period. His doctors say that the treatment was successful and that the disease has not spread.
”Thank God, I am healthy.”, writes Netanyahu in the post.
The treatment of a sitting prime minister during wartime without public knowledge is described as unusual. The data has therefore opened up questions about transparency, decision-making and what was kept from the public during a period of very large security policy decisions.
Coming in the middle of continued conflict
The revelation comes as the conflict with Iran and the fragile ceasefire still dominate the region. This makes the timing politically sensitive, especially as Netanyahu himself links the delay to the war.
At the same time, he says he is now fully recovered. A doctor who treated him states:
- We can say, based on the results of the tests, that the disease has disappeared.
It's a shame that the genocider didn't get his punishment for all the misery he has created.
Time to go.
Must be another glitch in the Matrix - the Irish War is the war where the attacker blocks the blockade, and where the Grim Reaper himself gets cancer!
