Matan Kahana: Ofer Winter firmly in Netanyahu bloc, Gantz and Troper should unite or quit race
Yashar! party official Matan Kahana told 103FM on Wednesday that Ofer Winter would strengthen Netanyahu's bloc, while condemning MK Zvi Sukkot's destruction of a West Bank memorial as "a disgrace."
Former IDF officer and Yashar! party member Matan Kahana has stated that Ofer Winter, an aspiring politician, is firmly aligned with the Netanyahu camp. Speaking to 103FM, Kahana criticized the actions of MK Zvi Sukkot, who smashed a memorial in the West Bank, calling it an act of anarchy and harm to the State of Israel. The former minister argued that such memorials should be destroyed, but not through violent means.
He acknowledged Winter's presence in the Netanyahu bloc, praising Winter for not supporting draft evasion and desertion among haredi Jews. Kahana urged smaller parties seeking to replace Netanyahu to either unite or withdraw from the election race, including his friend and former political partner, Benny Gantz. He also addressed Chili Tropper, who recently formed a separate party with Yoaz Hendel, echoing his earlier advice for Gantz and Gantz's friend Ayelet Shaked.
Kahana emphasized that the right-wing government should order the IDF to destroy these memorials if it wished to address the issue.
