MK slams protest leader for racist remark

Likud MK Gadi Yevarkan, who is of Ethiopian descent, slams Amir Haskel for making what he describes as a racist remark toward an Ethiopian police officer.

“Amir Haskel has become a racist and condescends toward police officers of Ethiopian descent. This is not how an IDF officer speaks,” he tells the Israel National News website.

“Haskel and his buddies are sure that Israel is theirs. They are lords of the land and everyone else are visitors at best, and slaves at worst. If they are not in control, there goes the country, Netanyahu is just an excuse,” he charges.

Haskel was filmed telling an Ethiopian officer that he brought her parents to the country and she should be ashamed.
