A political controversy has erupted around Ofer Winter's party, 'Amcha Yisrael,' following a report that a senior party member is considering resignation. Journalist Boaz Golan reported that Dovidi Ben Zion, a prominent figure in the party, is contemplating leaving the list and is expected to announce his departure in the coming days as a form of taking responsibility. The report suggests this potential resignation stems from the party's poor performance in internal polls, where it garnered only 2%, falling below the electoral threshold. Internal tensions and discomfort regarding the issue of a Palestinian state, following remarks by Yosef Haddad, are also cited as contributing factors. The report also claims another party figure is considering their options.
In response, the 'Amcha Yisrael' party issued a strong and unequivocal denial of the report. The party labeled the publication as "complete fake news from the factory of Boaz Golan," accusing him of acting with "obsession and base personal motives against Amcha Yisrael." The party accused Golan of personal vengeance and a lack of basic ethics, particularly on the eve of the memorial day for the October 7th attacks. Furthermore, the party emphasized that contrary to the reports, their movement is experiencing significant momentum, with thousands of new volunteers and supporters joining their ranks on the day of the report.
