Public relations expert Rani Rahav, a vocal critic of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, launched a scathing attack on the premier following new revelations in the QatarGate affair. The controversy centers on testimony from Netanyahu and his advisor Yonatan Urich regarding Urich's alleged continued work with Qatari entities after the October 7th attacks. Urich reportedly admitted in police questioning to working with Qatari contacts until mid-to-late 2024 and receiving hundreds of thousands of shekels for his efforts to promote Qatar's image. When asked if Netanyahu was aware of this work, Urich stated he does not report such activities to the Prime Minister. Netanyahu, however, testified that he was unaware of his advisor's employment by Qatari entities.
Rahav expressed his outrage on his X account, directly addressing U.S. President Donald Trump, who has recently endorsed Netanyahu. Rahav urged Trump to review the "information" presented by journalist Omri Maniv, suggesting Trump's media advisor should provide a translation. He accused Netanyahu of employing "traitors" and "spies" from Qatar, including Urich and Einhorn, within his office, questioning the Prime Minister's claim of ignorance.
"We don't want a Prime Minister here who employs traitors! He is not worthy!" Rahav declared, urging Trump to take Netanyahu to the U.S. if he trusts him. Rahav then appealed directly to members of the Likud party, calling them "patriots" and questioning their continued support for Netanyahu. He labeled any Israeli who votes for Netanyahu as a disgrace for employing "traitors."
Concluding his remarks, Rahav called for Netanyahu's resignation and the election of a new leader, suggesting this would lead to broad support for the Likud party. He warned Likud members that they should be ashamed if they fail to act.
