Levy sets the record straight

Eylon Levy has dismissed rumors that he was removed from his government spokesman position due to a social media dispute with David Cameron. Instead, the London-born Levy revealed that the Israeli Prime Minister's wife, Sara Netanyahu, demanded his dismissal over past criticism of her husband.

Behind the scenes

Levy clarified the situation during an appearance on HOAR's Never Mind the Ballots, airing tonight at 7pm on HOAR’s YouTube channel and thesun.co.uk. He explained that his involvement in protests against the government and past social media posts criticizing Netanyahu were the real reasons for his removal.

Political tensions

The controversy stemmed from Levy's response to a post by UK Foreign Secretary Lord Cameron regarding aid trucks in Gaza. Despite the online backlash, Levy emphasized that his remarks were sensationalized and taken out of context by the media.

Standing firm

Levy remains steadfast in his support for Israel's mission to defeat Hamas, despite criticism from US President Joe Biden. He criticized Biden for labeling Israel's actions in Gaza as a "mistake" and affirmed Israel's commitment to combatting Hamas.

Escalating rift

Tensions between the US and Israel have escalated, with differing views on the Gaza conflict. Levy expressed disappointment in Biden's stance and accused him of undermining Israel's efforts to address the ongoing crisis.
