Political commentator Amit Segal discussed his own dramatic report from earlier in the week, which revealed recordings of the former head of the IDF Manpower Directorate admitting to the fabrication of cases and the use of pressure tactics on politicians through investigations. Speaking on Radio 103FM with Erel Segal and Haim Levinson, Segal was asked why his exposé received minimal coverage on Channel 12, his employer.
Segal responded, "I am recalling my sins today. The truth is I knew it was a good story, but I wanted to go home early and didn't stay for what usually happens, to sit and discuss the exposé." He added, "I also didn't feel I had much new to say, it seemed so obvious. After all, Mandelblit said it."
Segal expressed low expectations for any reaction, stating, "My expectations are zero. I saw what happened to people who didn't go down well with Gali Baharav-Miara and Amit Issman, and conversely, how an investigation of Gilad Kariv, which should be the simplest, isn't progressing at all. We've seen it all before." He concluded, "I have no expectations that anyone from the 'Change Bloc' will address this."
