Ex-’Israeli’ PM: ’Israel’ ’Infected by Seeds of Fascism’

Local Editor

The "Israeli" apartheid entity is drifting toward fascism under Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, said former "Israeli" PM Ehud Barak. He added that the current government "needs to be brought down."

Barak, who led the country for over a decade in the 1990s and later served as war minister under Ehud Olmert and Benjamin Netanyahu, was commenting on the latest government reshuffle made this week by his former boss.

Netanyahu decided to replace War Minister Moshe Ya'alon with Avigdor Lieberman, the controversial chair of the far-right "Yisrael Beiteinu" party, instead of forming a coalition with the center-left Zionist Union. Ya'alon resigned Friday both from the government and from the parliament, citing "a lack of faith" in Netanyahu even as the PM reportedly tried to compensate him by offering the job of the so-called "Israeli" foreign minister.

Barak described the removal of Ya'alon as a "purge" in an interview with Channel 10 on Friday night and said it "should be a red light for all of us regarding what's going on in the government."

He said the "Israeli" entity saw a chain of events lately indicating that its government is "infected by seeds of fascism." It started with the controversial killing by an "Israeli" soldier of a helpless wounded Palestinian, Barak said. Netanyahu was among the many "Israeli" officials who defended the soldier's actions.

Other examples Barak cited included a proposal to lift immunity from MPs accused of supporting terrorism and a bill that would impose "Israeli" law on "Israelis" living in the occupied West Bank.

"What has happened is a hostile takeover of the ‘Israeli' government by dangerous elements. And it's just the beginning," Barak said.

"This government needs to be brought down before it brings all of us down," the former "Israeli" PM said, adding that foreign officials he speaks to are no longer supportive of the apartheid entity. "There are no serious leaders left in the world who believe the "Israeli" government," he added.
