Amit Segal is furious: "Obsessive dirtbag and a liar, there is a limit"
The political commentator for Channel 12 News did not hold back after a user, who claimed to be his neighbor, spoke about his personal life and revealed that he saw him "stuck" with his children at the playground. Segal did not like it and fired back a barrage of harsh insults.
Amit Segal, the political commentator for Channel 12 News, is often active on social media, where he publishes political commentary, responds to critics, and shares scoops. His online activity often sparks intense discussions and confrontations between his supporters and his critics.
Now, another confrontation between Segal and Amid Mandelbaum is sparking reactions online. The discourse began after a user wrote on X, formerly Twitter: "Today I found out how much Amit Segal earns per month and since then all I do is imagine what I would buy with that money."
Mandelbaum replied to him:
"If it comforts you, what he does is live in a not-so-big house on the street next to us, raises small children, and gets stuck on Saturdays at a busy playground full of children with dozens of other couples a decade younger than him. I saw it with my own eyes last Saturday."
Segal responded to the remarks sharply:
"This obsessive character, by his own claim, moved to live in my neighborhood. Instead of cultivating his own life, he is busy peeping and documenting."
Later, Segal addressed the remarks regarding his parenting:
"Raising small children is great, being with them on Saturdays at a playground in Jerusalem is not 'getting stuck' but a wonderful thing. I also recommend many children, and in general, it is desirable at a late age."
Segal added that "last Saturday I was in the Dolomites," and claimed there was a factual error in Mandelbaum's words. Later, he sharpened the tone:
"How sad it is to be a low-life who thinks that raising children is getting stuck with them, and how sad it is to be a child of a father who is not interested in you during the only free time of the week, and instead is obsessively glancing at his neighbors and running to report it on Twitter."
After users tried to explain to Segal that perhaps Mandelbaum had no bad intentions, the commentator replied: "This is an obsessive dirtbag and also a liar, there is a limit to every trick."
