Professor Yuval Elbashan, in a new interview clip on Channel 14, said "They destroyed the left" and declared that the left "cannot carry a sign that says 'The Court — Supreme'." The full interview with Oded Harosh is scheduled to air Saturday night.
A one-minute clip from an upcoming interview with Professor Yuval Elbashan aired on Channel 14 Saturday night, drawing attention for its sharp assessment of the Israeli left's standing after a year of war and political turmoil. In the clip, Elbashan tells interviewer Oded Harosh: "They destroyed the left for us. A left cannot carry a sign that says 'The Court — Supreme'." The remarks appear to refer to the left's identification with the Supreme Court during the 2023 judicial reform protests. Elbashan, a prominent constitutional law professor and a former protest leader known for pushing a compromise package between the coalition and opposition, has spoken in past interviews about how the October 7 massacre changed his worldview. The current clip suggests he has moved further toward a critique of the left's political strategy since the war. The full interview is scheduled to air Saturday night on Channel 14. As The Zioneer previously reported, Elbashan earlier this month described the October 7 attack as a transformative event in his thinking and outlined the compromise proposal he advanced.
