Former Israeli Prime Minister Urges Protests Against Netanyahu's Government.

Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has joined the protests against the current government, calling it the "enemy of the state of Israel." Olmert criticized the government's far-right policies, including radical changes to the judiciary and governance of the occupied West Bank. He also condemned the recent settler rampage against a Palestinian village and called for American leadership to reassess relations with Israel. Olmert believes that Israel cannot survive without an independent Palestinian state alongside it and warns that Israel is coming close to being perceived as an apartheid country.
