Form a government, you can hate each other on your own time - comment
After October 7, Israel needs a stable government for several years. A broad Zionist coalition should agree on the work and get it done.
On January 25, 1949, Rabbi Moshe Yekutiel Alpert cast his ballot in Israel's first national election. Alpert arrived at the Jerusalem polling station, attended by a polling committee chair who was tardy. Despite the delay, Alpert was invited to vote first due to his status as the oldest attendee. He expressed gratitude for the opportunity, noting that his father and grandfather had not experienced this privilege.
Alpert's enthusiasm for the democratic process was evident, even as he anticipated the challenges that lay ahead for a fledgling nation.
