    Have just been checking AIJAC's youtube channel for any new uploads and found one of....Gilad Erdan.
    The man is working really, really hard to create a non-existing link between the events of 7 October and the Jewish holocaust of WW2.

    Lots of outrages claims, for example, at 5:04 he says "...today the UN has become one of the weapons of modern-day Nazis..."

    But what caught my attention was Erdan's pronounciation of Elie Wiesel's surname at around 2:30 minute mark.
    'Wiesel' should be prounanced 'vee-ZEL' but he prounances it 'wee-ZEL' like in a 'weasel'.

    How can this be?
    Gilad Erdan ( https://main.knesset.gov.il/en/MK/APPS/mk/mk-personal-details/734 ) was born in Ashkelon, Israel in 1970 and, throughout his life, must have heard numerous times the correct pronounciation of Elie Wiesel's surname - 'veezel' - and yet he calls him 'weezel' like in a 'weasel' ?

    This is how the late Elie Wiesel himself pronounced his surame: https://school.teachingbooks.net/pronounce.cgi?pid=18
