Unexpected Turn on Channel 12 News: “I Will Never Forget That”

The Haredi commentator Israel Cohen arrived today, Wednesday, at the Channel 12 News studios for what was expected to be a heated confrontation with Knesset member Merav Cohen of Yesh Atid, over the advancement of the Basic Law: Torah Study, which passed its preliminary reading today. But at the start of the discussion, Cohen instead chose to heap praise on the Haredi commentator.

“I’ll just say that the last time Israel and I met was at a demonstration in Tel Aviv for the return of the hostages. I was at all of those demonstrations, but the public Israel comes from was silent, and he דווקא came with his little and adorable child to demonstrate for the return of the hostages, and I will never forget that.”
