MK Miki Zohar was interviewed this morning (Sunday) by Nissim Mash'al and Ben Caspit on 103FM, and commented on the picture in which opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu was seen sitting at the San Francisco airport on his luggage. "I prefer not to comment on this picture," Zohar said. The Corona said that "there are too many Corona deniers in Bennett's government.

This government believes that even if people die here it is not terrible.

I lost my father when I was 5 and I know what it means to lose a person. "

Zohar also expressed his opinion on MK Miri Regev's remarks. Some are unable to accept the idea. "

The Ministry of Health warns of a new corona strain: "If it comes to Israel - we will reach a closure"

• A decrease in the number of corona patients in critical condition;

  The rate of positive tests - higher than in February

• Avishai Ben-Haim's repulsive licking article about David Amsalem should have been thrown in the bin and ended in a reprimand

• The button that can save your life in the event of a medical emergency

Verified numbers are rising, the government is determined not to impose a closure. Overall Bennett is trying to stick to what he did the last time he was in opposition. Not to hurt the economy. what are you saying?

I think what Naftali Bennett is doing in this matter is not stamped but led. If it depended only on Bennett, he might have taken more active action but in his government there are quite a few people who in my eyes Corona deniers, who believe that Corona is a flu that will pass.

It does not stand the test of reality, because there are a million vaccinated in the third vaccine. Reality shows that Bennett's government is succeeding in getting people vaccinated.

It is clear that this is what can help Israel not to enter into an acute crisis, but this government believes that even if people die it is not terrible, it is part of an epidemic. People do not understand what a person's loss is, some may not have lost people - I lost my father at the age of five. I know what it means to lose a person, I know what a family is when someone falls apart no matter how old they are. Every person is a world and its fullness.

You mean, like, saltines and their ilk, eh?

She was back in it.

I'm talking about the government's approach, I'm sorry that human life in their eyes is something that is probably not important enough and the money and money that is currently of interest to the government outweighs human life.

This thing in my eyes is not true, not worthy, does not go according to the Jewish spirit we were educated on that the value of life above all and I am really sorry but this government takes into account that we will pay a heavy price and have no problem paying that price.

"I lost my father at the age of 5. I know what it means to lose a person."

Shaked said the right things, to be prime minister and in general about all the decision-making, when you send soldiers into battle - you know some will fall. Do not forget that the Likud government brought 6,400 dead, not that there was a choice because there is a plague. Also the economy is to keep alive, you know what harm was done and also to the children because of education. It's risk management.

The state could have made a little more dramatic moves and compensated the business owners with money, the state has the ability to give people some more breathing space for a certain period of time. If the state made a decision to make a closure for a month and give a month payment to all business owners in the same breath and not just say closure and get along but give business owners money to survive this month and during it would say we do vaccination and whoever gets vaccinated will take into account the restrictions. I am sure that in just one month the State of Israel would make a 180-degree turn that the number of people infected would drop dramatically. Because everyone would want to get vaccinated.

Did you see Netanyahu sitting in San Francisco on the suitcases?

I saw the pictures, in this case I prefer to keep to myself. In this matter I prefer not to express myself. This is not something I want to talk about. You do not believe - I have always been sensitive.

Are you an emotional type? Do you cry in movies?

Very emotional, people do not know how much. Only my kids can make me cry and for some reason, but I usually don’t cry. My kids make me cry.

Where do you stand in the Likud debate following Miri Regev's remarks? Is it time for an Mizrahi prime minister?

A person should be elected prime minister according to his qualifications no matter what origin he is from. I think the ethnic discourse is slowly passing away, but there is no doubt that there is still a certain elite that does not like to accept the Eastern testimony into it, that is something I unequivocally see.

"I'm a sensitive person. It's not something I want to comment on."

It needs to be worded more clearly.

Israeli society today is not built for an Mizrahi prime minister and I say this with a lot of pain.

I'm sorry, I do not agree.

I think there are a great many Oriental people, very talented, who can fit into this role but in the end it is a matter of public choice.

The class gaps in Israel are narrowing, today between Mizrahi and Ashkenazi there are not the same gaps that existed at the beginning of the establishment of the state.

Israeli society today cannot contain an Mizrahi prime minister, the political system cannot let an Mizrahi prime minister come.

I think it's going to happen faster than people think.

I have never used my Orientalism or taken it as a tool to advance politically.

the opposite.
