Filmmaker Ami Horowitz has slammed the global narrative which tries to “demonise” Israel and “lie” about its war with Hamas.

Mr Horowitz interviewed Arab-Israelis living in Israel who claim relations between the two states are calm and they don’t experience any racism.

“They are very clear – they would much rather live in Israel than any other Arab state,” Mr Horowitz told Sky News host Rita Panahi.

“They, more than any other person, understand what they have and what they would lose if they were part of Egypt or Iraq or a Palestinian state.

“In terms of economics, they have more money, they have more income ... they have more freedom, they get to vote; none of these things are available anywhere else in the Arab world.”
