Former Mossad head says PM leading Israel to apartheid

Former Mossad head charges that Netanyahu’s policy on the Palestinians will end up making Israel a bi-national apartheid state.

Speaking on Channel 2, Dagan says “Mr. Netanyahu and Mr. Bennett are leading Israel on a road at the end of which is a catastrophe.”

The full interview with Dagan will be aired Friday. In a snippet from Dagan’s reaction to Netanyahu’s speech to the US Congress on Tuesday – which he watched alongside a Channel 2 analyst, Dagan can be seen muttering at the screen “bullshit” after Netanyahu makes a point on Iran’s progress in its nuclear program.

Likud, in a reaction to Dagan’s comments on the speech, said in a statement that the speech’s impact can already be felt by world players who are trying to change the details of the deal between the P5+1 and Iran. The Likud reaction ignored Dagan’s scathing remarks on what he sees as the government’s treatment of the Palestinian dossier.
