Israeli rapper Ron Nesher has accused the state of discriminating against Mizrahi Jews, suggesting that those who historically claimed ethnic marginalization are now unfairly targeting Ashkenazi Jews. In an Instagram Q&A session, Nesher stated, "We have reached a situation where those who claimed ethnic deprivation for years since the state's founding are now allowing themselves to be Ashkenazi-racist while they choose the greatest Ashkenazi of all!" He was referring to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Nesher also shared a quote about foolishness, stating, "Foolishness is a disease for which there is no cure. If a fool knew he was a fool, he would stop because he would be embarrassed to be a fool, but a fool is too much of a fool, so he will not notice his foolishness and will be infected by it!"
This is not the first time Nesher has criticized Netanyahu. Last week, during the commemoration of the October 7th attacks, the rapper questioned the Prime Minister's claims about prior warnings regarding the attacks before the elections. Nesher asked on Instagram, "Whose responsibility is it, before elections, before, I emphasize before, like you emphasized, to prepare a preventive action? If you have intelligence information that we are going to be attacked before the elections, who is the Prime Minister before the elections? Can you remind me?"
He further elaborated, "Benjamin, you know how to speak a lot in English, in Hebrew, and in every language to get applause, but you don't know how to interpret your own nonsense? I'm interested to know, because on the same date, there was a Prime Minister who claimed he wasn't woken up, and in this case, it was you. By chance. So now it's you too. Now too. So to all the blind people who haven't grasped it yet, okay? The same person who warns is the person who needs to solve it, because the reins are in your hands at any time before elections. And don't let them fool you like they usually do!"
Nesher and Netanyahu have a past connection, as Nesher produced a song for Netanyahu's 2009 election campaign.
