Zandberg slams ‘foolish’ ‘populist’ legislation banning filming soldiers
Meretz chair MK Tamar Zandberg slams the bill that would ban filming IDF soldiers as “populist” and “foolish,” after the controversial legislation passed its first Knesset reading.
“This is another populist government-sponsored law passed a preliminary reading, a foolish law that doesn’t recognize that we are in 2018 and bans photography,” she says.
Zandberg says the law is designed to “incite against human rights organizations and challenge the basic principles of Israeli democracy.”
