Yehuda Cohen, the father of the abducted soldier Nimrod Cohen, commented on Noa Argamani joining Prime Minister Netanyahu's U.S. visit and slammed the Coordinator for the Hostages and Missing Brigadier General (Ret.) Gal Hirsch. "I tried to ask Hirsch why I didn't get an invitation. After all, he wrote that they brought a diverse group, but none of the soldiers' parents. We are working on our visit. I received partial funding from the Defense Ministry as a first-degree relative. They knew that if they refused we would say it was political."
