National Unity Party Demands Removal of AI Video Targeting Top Judges
The National Unity Party, led by Gadi Eisenkot, has sent a warning letter to the Religious Zionism party and its chairman, Bezalel Smotrich, demanding the immediate removal of an AI-generated video. The video depicts Supreme Court President Yitzhak Amit and Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara as protesters holding signs against Smotrich, being dragged by police through burning streets.
The National Unity Party set a deadline of 3:00 PM for the video's removal, stating that it constitutes dangerous incitement that crosses all red lines. The letter argues that the video potentially violates criminal law, specifically Section 255 of the Penal Law, which prohibits publishing material about a judge concerning their duties with the intent to harm their status, discredit them, or demean the judicial process.
The party asserts that the video is a severe attack on the judiciary and the rule of law, and that Smotrich, as chairman of the Religious Zionism party, is responsible for its content and dissemination. They warned that if the video is not removed, they will consider further legal and public actions.
