The Argaman Institute released another excerpt from Shin Bet Director David Zini's speech from last night, which sparked controversy. The segment outlines five values that should guide public sector workers, including the principle that 'whoever does not believe that good will prevail has no place in the public sector.'
Moriah Asraf and Doron Kadosh (N13 / Army Radio) report that the Argaman Institute has published another segment from the speech delivered by Shin Bet Director David Zini last night, which sparked public and media controversy. The segment outlines five values that Zini says should guide public sector workers, including the statement that 'whoever does not believe that good will prevail has no place in the public sector.'
The Zioneer previously reported on the publication of the full text of Zini's remarks earlier today. The new segment provides additional context to the remarks that had initially been leaked selectively, generating debate about the Shin Bet chief's worldview and his role. The Argaman Institute is a research institute associated with the Israeli right.
The full significance of the additional segment remains to be seen, but it adds to the ongoing public discussion about Zini's statements.
