Meretz MK: Herzog is useful idiot for Netanyahu

Meretz MK Issawi Frij calls opposition leader Isaac Herzog of Zionist Union a useful idiot for the right wing after he suggested a ban on the broadcast of Knesset speeches by controversial Arab MK Hanin Zoabi.

Frij says that Herzog was unperturbed by comments from hardline Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman, “who called left-wing organizations ‘terrorist accomplices’… but Zoabi he wants to silence.”

The MK brands Herzog “an incompetent person and no more than a useful idiot in the service of Netanyahu and the right.”
