Gideon Levy: Israeli journalist on the protests erupting in Tel Aviv

from The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin · host Newstalk ZB

Israeli protestors have taken to the streets of Tel Aviv angry over the Israeli Government's plan to occupy Gaza City. Latest opinion polls show around 70 percent of people in Israel oppose Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's plan for military control in Gaza City. World leaders have condemned Israel's take-over plan and an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council is due to be held in New York tomorrow. Israeli journalist Gideon Levy says there's a great number of protesters on the streets, but people in Israel are divided over Netanyahu's plans. "There is the other camp which continues to support Netanyahu and will continue to support him...so the protest is very impressive, but it does not have a lot of effect."
