While there has been a lot of suppositions about former Mossad chief Meir Dagan’s political predilections, now that he’s openly come out, those speculations aren’t rumor anymore.
Meir Dagan appeared Saturday evening at a far leftwing rally held at Kikar Rabin in Tel Aviv.
The rally called for the replacement of Benjamin Netanyahu as Prime Minister.
Since leaving office, Dagan has made a number of public pronouncements, openly disagreeing with and even contradicting the Prime Minister. Those statements left many people wondering if Dagan was speaking professionally or politically.
But with Dagan’s appearance at the radical leftwing rally filled with Meretz, Peace Now, V15 and Zionist Camp (Labor) supporters, along with his anti-Netanyahu speech and tired leftwing clichés, that question has been put to rest.
Making it clear that his attack weren’t just personal against Netanyahu, Dagan also attacked Bayit Yehudi Naftali Bennett’s political policies too.
Another ex-military chief openly joins the ranks of the left – another tired cliché.
The rally was organized by a leftwing political group called the “One Million Hands movement” founded by “three ordinary Israelis” – according to their website.
Only an estimated 35,000 leftwing protesters showed up. The organizers expected hundreds of thousands of people to attend.
