MDA Global President Gilad Erdan at Jpost Gala evening: “I joined Magen David Adom to make sure that our warriors in white have whatever is needed to save lives in the Holy Land.”
MDA Global President Gilad Erdan, speaking at the Jerusalem Post Gala at the Israeli Embassy in Washington on Tuesday evening, said that he decided to join the organization after serving as Israel’s Ambassador to the United Nations because Israel’s enemies deliberately targeted the home front, firing on Magen David Adom ambulances and attacking Magen David Adom paramedics.
“Our enemies know that they cannot defeat the IDF, because we are too strong for them,” said Erdan. “Instead, they target the home front because that’s where they think we are weaker. They want to terrorize our civilians and drive us away from our homeland in fear. I learned during the war that our enemies know that Magan David Adom is the backbone of Israel’s resilience, so they deliberately targeted our paramedics. The Shin Bet found documents on Nukhba terrorists instructing them to attack Magen David Adom paramedics. I joined Magen David Adom to make sure that our warriors in white have whatever is needed to save lives in the Holy Land.”
