Israeli TikToker Eli Finish posted a video on his account Sunday, filmed in his home, in which he declared his prediction for the upcoming Knesset elections, scheduled for late October. Finish stated, "I understand. I understand who is going to win the upcoming elections." He then elaborated on his prediction, "The candidate who will dare and stand up and say I am going to cancel winter time. Thirty mandates. Thirty." He concluded the video with the word "Enough," expressing frustration with the political situation.
This is not the first time Finish has stirred controversy with his social media posts. In April, he published his opinion on the conflict with Iran, which was interpreted by many as support for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. At the time, Finish wrote, "We won, we didn't win. So much chatter and clicking. I don't know about you, but I see an army that did Hollywood, I see a nation that opened beer in a safe room, I see a stunned Iran. Call me optimistic, but I'm not the only one," concluding with "Am Yisrael Chai" and Israeli flag and red heart emojis.
