Yesh Atid MK insists he wasn’t making Hitler comparison in warning against far-right

Yesh Atid MK Ram Ben Barak insists he was not comparing any Israeli political figure to Adolf Hitler, after evoking the Nazi German leader to warn against the prospect of opposition chief Benjamin Netanyahu assembling a government with the far-right after Tuesday’s election.

“Let’s be clear — I did not compare nor will ever compare anyone in the State of Israel or the world to Hitler,” Ben Barak tweets.

“The attempt to portray it as a comparison is not accurate and it is unfortunate that someone is trying to portray it thus.”
