Israeli ambassador to France Yael German announced on Thursday that she will quit office in an act of public defiance after the country’s new government swore in Benjamin Netanyahu, and with him, the nation’s most far-right leadership in history. Netanyahu was ousted from office in 2021 as he battled a trial over bribery, fraud and breach of trust but was re-elected prime minister this year.
“Sadly,” German wrote in a letter to Netanyahu, “the government you established and lead includes representatives of parties whose extreme positions are expressed in its guidelines, in its policies, and in statements on legislation — illegitimate legislation in my eyes — it intends to pass.” German began her political career in the left-leaning Meretz Party and has been an ally of outgoing Prime Minister Yair Lapid. Accusing the new government of having anti-democratic values and defying the county’s Declaration of Independence, German added that she cannot “lie to myself and continue to represent policies that are so radically different from what I believe in.”
Good riddance!
BARUCH SHEPETARANI!!! May all the leftists in the government follow in her footsteps!!!!!!!
She knew she would be imminently replaced by the Netanyahu government, so she preemptively resigned “in protest”.
Exactly. “You can’t fire me because I quit!”
Stupid woke Karen white female. She can go fly a kite.
To any sane person, freedom of religion is higher on the list of democratic requirements than someones feelings. Yair lapid is like his father against democracy. This crybaby claims that the religious take away his democracy, yet he legislates to restrict (and subsequently remove) freedom of religion. This makes him in his own words a socialist.
Were the maccabees for or opposed to “freedom of religion”?
There are levels more important than that default
Canada? Is she moving to canada? Tell her all the liberal socialists threaten to move to canada. Perhaps she can see what her likeminded leftist socialist cohorts add to their resume. Actually on top of their resume they have anti semites!
B”H she is leaving, and let all the left exit politics and please be careful and don’t let the door hit you on the way out
No lose she would have been replaced by bibi’s choice to represent isreal. Not a left leaning woke socialist
Stupid woman! Haven’t the people of Israel voted? Don’t you believe in democracy or has your time in France so warped your brain: seemingly so!
Her name says it all
Rum to hunt. The luck is a fit.
