Avi Shoshan Claims Right-Wing Israelis Face Systemic Injustice and Discrimination

During a broadcast on Channel 14's program The Patriots, Avi Shoshan expressed deep frustration with Israel's judicial system, asserting that right-wing citizens are treated as second-class. He claimed that the judiciary looks down on them, "spitting in their faces" and dismissing their rights. Shoshan criticized the lack of justice in the country, citing specific cases where he believes fairness was denied, including a call for imprisonment of a public figure he referenced as "Miss Universe". He stated that right-wing Israelis have only "three to three and a half rights" compared to others.

Shoshan also addressed the political struggle, emphasizing that democracy cannot be resolved solely through elections. He compared the right's situation to that of the left, noting that the left mobilizes regularly and has more financial resources, while the right is marginalized, likened to "traffic cones at a soccer game that you just pass by." He recounted a poignant interview with an aircraft technician that symbolized this sense of discrimination, which moved him to tears. Shoshan concluded by saying that not only are right-wing citizens treated as second-class, but they continue to be oppressed.

His remarks reflect ongoing tensions within Israeli society regarding political and judicial fairness, highlighting the perception among some right-wing groups of systemic bias against them. The discussion aired recently and is part of broader debates about democracy and justice in Israel.
