Jerusalem protester: ‘Each person who comes inspires more people to show up’
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThousands of protesters remain at Jerusalem’s Paris Square as the largest anti-Netanyahu protest in the capital continues.
Maya Glasser, 28, tells The Times of Israel that she believes Netanyahu is neglecting his duties as prime minister in the middle of the coronavirus crisis to deal with the cases pending against him.
“I’m left-wing, but at this point I don’t even care. It could even be [Yamina party leader Naftali] Bennett — we need someone, anyone who will try to lead the country,” Glasser says.
Glasser says she is optimistic about the future of the protest movement after tonight’s turnout.
“Each person who comes inspires more people to show up,” she says.
