Yotam Zamri Accuses Avishai Ben Haim of Telling Mizrahim to 'Remain Slaves'

During a broadcast on Channel 14's program The Patriots, Yotam Zamri sharply criticized Dr. Avishai Ben Haim for his statement that "one must lower their head before the Supreme Court." Zamri argued that Ben Haim's message was directed at viewers from the periphery, the right-wing, and Mizrahi communities, implying they should "be ashamed of their opinions and hide them." Zamri further accused Ben Haim of effectively telling these groups to "remain slaves," emphasizing the phrase "You are telling Mizrahim to remain slaves. You are telling the poor to remain slaves." In response, Dr. Ben Haim attempted to clarify, stating, "No, I say pride, I say pride." However, Zamri persisted with his accusations. The exchange was supported by Yinon Magal, who affirmed Zamri's position, saying, "He is absolutely right." The debate highlights ongoing tensions regarding attitudes toward the Supreme Court and social divisions within Israeli society.
