Inside Israel Today: Did Abbas Kill the Israeli Left?

Gil Hoffman speaks to Zionist Union Knesset member Nachman Shai on the impact of the Israeli Left on Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas's anti-Semitic speech and rejection of peace talks. Shai, like Naftali Bennett Monday says the Abbas era is over, but unlike Bennett, Shai says the 2 state solution is still alive. Shai also laments Israel's inability to get out its message when its Foreign Ministry's funding has been cut again.
