Ariel Mayor Ron Nachman urged Israel’s right-wing public on Thursday to unite against the fierce attacks in the media on Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.

“We are currently witnessing a disgraceful phenomenon in Israel, where the media and journalists who supported [former PM] Sharon and forgave him for everything because of the disengagement, just as they forgave Yitzchak Rabin for everything because of Oslo, now they are willing to give up all moral norms to topple Netanyahu,” Nachman charged.

“This is first-degree lawlessness,” he added. “There is no law, no morality - all is kosher just so they topple the prime minister and the national camp. This is very serious.”
