Election Committee Chair Opens Hearings with Prayer, MK Kariv Condemns 'Racist' Jewish Power
The second day of election committee hearings opened with a prayer for the recovery of Neriah Leiter, who was injured in a recent attack. Committee chair MK Yitzhak (Itzik) Kariv led the prayer, emphasizing the need for healing and unity.
MK Kariv also launched a sharp verbal attack on the Otzma Yehudit party, labeling its members as 'racists.' He specifically criticized ministers and Knesset members who attended memorial events for the late Rabbi Meir Kahane, stating that such actions demonstrate racist tendencies. The committee is currently deliberating requests to disqualify political candidates from running in the upcoming elections.
