Public relations expert Rani Rahav has launched a sharp verbal attack against Channel 14 presenter Yinon Magal, criticizing his recent remarks on a radio show. Magal had read out a list of individuals, including relatives of hostages and those who experienced loss on October 7th, labeling them "the most despicable people in the State of Israel." He suggested that the only way Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would forgive them is if they vote for the "Mahal" (Likud) party.
Rahav condemned Magal's words as "despicable and threatening," stating they cannot atone for his actions. He urged Magal to "wake up" and cease his behavior, interpreting it as a divine warning. Rahav also criticized the government and Magal's support for it, calling October 7th a "holy day" commemorating 1200 innocent victims due to state failure. He argued that the Prime Minister's refusal to establish a state commission of inquiry into the events is a sign for Magal to stop.
Furthermore, Rahav accused Magal's allies, including Netanyahu, Yariv Levin, and others, of ignoring security warnings and proceeding with efforts to dismantle democracy, which Rahav claims led to the massacre. He sarcastically offered "congratulations" to Magal and his wife, reiterating that Magal's words cannot excuse his "despicable and threatening" conduct towards bereaved families.
In a separate social media post, Rahav expressed disbelief at Magal's perceived descent into "filth, disgrace, and horror," questioning what he would do to "serve his master." Magal has since partially retracted his statements, admitting it was a mistake to mention the families of hostages and clarifying that he excludes them from his criticism.
