Netanyahu's New Media Adviser Shuts Down Twitter Account
Amidst Controversy
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's new media adviser, Gilad Zwick, has shut down his Twitter account on Tuesday following a wave of controversy. Zwick had been tweeting controversial statements, including the claim that Israel is a "lost cause." These tweets sparked outrage and led to calls for his resignation.
Zwick's Controversial Tweets
Zwick's Twitter account had been the source of controversy since his appointment as Netanyahu's media adviser. In one tweet, he wrote, "Israel is a lost cause." He also tweeted, "The country is finished." These tweets were widely condemned by Israelis, who accused Zwick of being unpatriotic and undermining the country's morale.
The backlash against Zwick's tweets led to calls for his resignation. Many people, including members of Netanyahu's own party, demanded that he be fired. Netanyahu initially resisted these calls, but he eventually agreed to ask Zwick to resign.
Zwick's resignation is a blow to Netanyahu, who was hoping to use him to improve his image and connect with younger voters. It also raises questions about Netanyahu's judgment, as he was the one who appointed Zwick in the first place.
