Minister of Information Galit Distel Atabrian says on Channel 14 that "Channel 13 is aiming for one of us to get shot", on March 16, 2023 (Channel 14)
Minister of Information Galit Distal Atabrian said this evening that "Channel 13 is aiming for one of us to get shot", announced that they would boycott the channel and called it "a hotbed of incitement and poison".
This follows a critical monologue against her that was heard last night by the presenter of the main edition Hila Korah after the speech that included the statement that caused the storm "I am no longer shocked and it is your families that were burned there".
Channel 13 said in response that "this is serious incitement against media in Israel that must be strongly condemned."
The first thing happened yesterday (Tuesday), when Distal Atbarian protested in the Knesset plenum that she was called the "Minister of Propaganda", and attacked the members of the opposition: "For years I kept the memory of the Holocaust, for years I was shocked by the Holocaust, I am no longer shocked and it is your families who were burned there."
Distel Atbarian's words led to many criticisms of her, including from Korah, in an opinion column in the 13th edition of News.
Korah said last night: "The Minister of Information is standing on the podium of the Knesset, and says that following calls against her, she is no longer shocked by the holocaust memorials. That's how it was in the original speech of the Minister of Information, the things in context. I'm not going to get into comparisons to Goebbels on the one hand, and calls of 'Jews' among some of your close associates on the other The second. How did you say, Minister Distel? 'Nazis like glitter', just after you accused our channel of 'cleansing' the truth-tellers, no less. An interesting choice of words that we will not dwell on, because there was one thing in this speech of yours that should bother everyone who wants to continue living here as one people. You said - as the minister of information, yes? - that the trivialities of the Holocaust should worry 'you' because 'your' families were burned in the Holocaust. Who did you mean? The Jews of Libya, Iraq, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria? Or were you mistakenly trying to imply Or say explicitly that the Holocaust is a 'matter of the leftists', that is, 'of the Ashkenazim', who are 'necessarily leftists'? I didn't understand."
"Who are they and who are we in this event?" Korah added, "How do you explain this, as the minister of information? How do you explain this on a day when the prime minister travels to one of our strongest allies, Germany, an alliance that was forged against the background of the greatest crime committed against the people The Jew and the world in general. What are you trying to explain here, and to whom?"
Following the monologue, this evening (Thursday) Distel-Atebrian wrote on Twitter: "I am completely boycotting Channel 13. I was just sent the monologue that Hila Korech prepared in my honor. It takes a very deep level of unfairness to edit my speech in this way. A sentence and a half was extracted without context To turn the pain over the scorn of the Holocaust into disdain for the Holocaust. This channel has become a bed of incitement and poison. I will never set foot there again."
In response to this, News 13 reported: "We are proud of Hila's column, and without any connection Minister Distal Atabrian is always invited to be a guest on our programs."
The confrontation intensified when Distal Atbarian, who was a guest on Channel 14 tonight, said: "Channel 13 is waiting for someone from the government to be murdered."
Channel 13 said in response to this: "This is a serious incitement against the media in Israel that must be strongly condemned. The Minister's horrifying statement is a threat to the freedom of our press and that of our colleagues."
