Shirel Hogeg, whose family survived the October 7 massacre in Kibbutz Kfar Aza, easily riles up the crowd outside the President’s Residence in Jerusalem during the Saturday night protest.
“Go, go, go already!” yells Hogeg. “We’ve been yelling for 15 years already. You knew this all, you wrote it in your book,” Hogeg yells about Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “You’re the leader, you’re guilty. You’re not worthy of this country.”
