National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir addressed Ynet and Yedioth Ahronoth's 'The People of the State' conference regarding his insistence on removing two olives from the menu of security prisoners, saying, "It starts with the small details. You mocked me for dealing with olives or pitas? I took everything from them, that's what you don't understand. It starts there. They tried to assassinate me 11 times because they tell themselves this is a minister who brought change." He added: "Our enemies respect reality; when you use force, they think a million times before carrying out an attack." Regarding the distribution of death penalty pins for terrorists in schools, he said: "It reduces attacks."
