'Wonder Woman' actress takes on Israel's Netanyahu with anti-racism post on Instagram
Gal Gadot attends the Los Angeles premiere of"I Am the Night" last month. By Ruth Eglash Ruth Eglash Reporter covering Israel and the Palestinian territories Email Bio Follow March 10 at 8:38 PM JERUSALEM — It looks like Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu might have gone and upset Wonder Woman.
Sela, whose face adorns billboards across the country and who appears on Israeli television in one reality show or another almost every night, had aired concerns about the way Israel’s Arab population is being used in a derogatory manner during the campaign. Apparently, the post caught Netanyahu’s eye, and he took the unusual step of answering her directly on Facebook:
Netanyahu is facing stiff competition from Gantz, who has joined forces with Netanyahu rival Lapid, and he is also under strain after the country’s attorney general announced recently that he is considering indicting the Israeli leader on charges of fraud, bribery and breach of trust in three separate criminal cases.
Immediately afterward, he also made reference to International Women’s Day, saying that despite progress in women’s participation and leadership in various sectors — “there is still much work to do."
