Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said at the inauguration ceremony of the Maoz Tzur settlement in Benjamin that Israel will expand its borders in Gaza, Lebanon and Syria. Smotrich said: 'They always talk about the military leg and then about the political leg, and there are those who criticize us that there are military achievements and no political leg.' He added that 'there will be a political leg in Gaza that will expand our borders, there will be a conclusive political leg in Lebanon that will expand our borders to the Litani on defensible borders and there will be a conclusive political leg in Syria with the Hermon crown and the buffer zone at least. That's what they respect in our neighborhood and that's what is needed to secure our security.'
