Bennett Slams Yair Netanyahu as 'Despicable' Ahead of Elections
Editorial illustration generated by baba News, not a photograph of the event.

Former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has launched a scathing attack on Yair Netanyahu, son of opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu, calling him a "despicable person" who is part of a "terrible poison machine" that is "dismantling Israel." Bennett's remarks were made during an interview on the program "Meeting with Roni Kuban" on Kan 11, scheduled to air Saturday night, just before a significant election.

Bennett elaborated that this "poison machine" is operated by a small group of close advisors receiving salaries from Qatar. He accused them of daily injecting "poison" into the minds of Israeli citizens, all under Benjamin Netanyahu's direction. This machine, he claimed, has falsely accused political rival Benny Gantz of being an "Iranian agent" and has attacked bereaved families and others without limits.

Bennett further alleged that this group simultaneously disseminates its messages through media personalities like Bardugo and Yinon Magal, and to Channel 14. He recounted a personal experience where the "poison machine" targeted him, spreading the false claim that his mother was Christian. Bennett described this as "the most abhorrent" attack, especially given that his mother's family was annihilated in the Holocaust, and stated that those responsible, along with "other Qataris," are at the "center" of this operation.
