A fiery exchange erupted on Channel 13's program "Storm on the Net" when public relations figure Rani Rahav referred to Jewish rioters in Judea and Samaria as "the new Germans of the State of Israel." The comment immediately drew a sharp rebuke from interviewer Shai Goldin, who demanded Rahav cease the comparison between Jews and Nazis.
The discussion quickly escalated into a loud argument, with both participants firmly holding their ground. Rahav had initially stated that IDF and Border Police soldiers were unprepared to handle those he termed "the new Germans of the State of Israel," referring to Jewish rioters. Goldin interrupted him, vehemently opposing the term and repeatedly stating, "Don't call Jews Nazis," invoking the memory of the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust. Goldin concluded his objection by saying, "To compare a Jew to a Nazi in my eyes is a crime, period. I've said my piece."
