Avi Bitter: "Eisenkot doesn't know English, and Benjamin Netanyahu didn't do anything wrong"
In an interview with the "All in" podcast, singer Avi Bitter discussed his career, his long-standing struggle in the industry, and the political reality in Israel, explaining why he supports the Prime Minister.
The world of Mizrahi and Mediterranean music has seen many stories over the years of singers who tried to break through to the pinnacle of the Israeli music scene but did not always succeed. For Avi Bitter, the path involved a constant struggle for survival, for original music, and for his place in the entertainment industry.
In an interview with Yossi Marshak on the "All in" podcast, Bitter opened up about his journey, the difficulties he faced over the years, and the feeling of abandonment by those close to him. During the conversation, he also addressed the social and political reality in Israel.
Against the backdrop of the approaching election period, Bitter was asked about the political climate and his position regarding Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. When asked why he supports Netanyahu specifically, the singer replied:
"On the left there is no leader, Eisenkot doesn't know English, a prime minister needs to be smart."
In doing so, Bitter expressed clear support for Netanyahu and presented his perception of the qualities required of someone who seeks to lead the country. In conclusion, he added: "Listen, this is not an easy country, we have a million and one troubles. Bibi didn't do anything wrong, but people want change. There is no problem with change, but bring someone normal, bring someone at Bibi's level."
