MK Ram Ben-Barak Calls Netanyahu Israel's 'Biggest Enemy'

Member of Knesset Ram Ben-Barak, from the Yamina party list (part of the "Yesh Atid-National Unity" alliance), sparked controversy on Tuesday with a harsh statement against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In an interview with Reshet Bet radio, Ben-Barak was asked about Netanyahu's performance and policies. He responded, "Israel's biggest enemy is Netanyahu." He later reiterated his stance, stating "Unequivocally." The remark drew a sharp response from Likud Minister Miki Zohar, who attacked Ben-Barak on social media. Zohar suggested Ben-Barak's statement was motivated by his inability to bear Netanyahu's "amazing" speech at the UN the previous day, claiming "hatred simply blinds them." He added, "Sad. Netanyahu will not surrender. God willing, we will win the elections."
