‘Parasitic population’: Yair Golan’s controversial remarks about haredim
Democrats chairman Yair Golan said that the Haredi population must be transformed into a productive one.
Democrats party leader Yair Golan has stated that the assassination of former Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei by the IDF was a mistake, as it did not serve Israel's interests. Golan argues that Khamenei's death removed Iran's veteran leadership and allowed for the rise of more extreme and violent elements. He also criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for misleading the United States about toppling the Iranian regime, instead of pursuing a diplomatic strategy.
Golan emphasized his support for mandatory haredi (ultra-Orthodox) enlistment in the Israeli military, stating that it would lead to a more integrated society.
