TV presenter and media personality Maayan Adam posted a deeply personal and emotional plea on social media, three years after her sister, Meital Adam, was killed in the October 7th Hamas attack. Sharing a poignant image of her mother grieving over a picture of Meital at a memorial site, Adam directed a sharp political message to her followers and the public.
"It's nice to hug and pleasant to receive a heart emoji, but it doesn't help," Adam wrote. "To truly share in sorrow means participating in what is most sorrowful: three years without an investigation, without culprits. Our daughter died, and the government only wants to continue with life. It disrespects us, the murdered, the reservists, and the fallen."
Adam directly addressed supporters of the current government ahead of the upcoming elections. "If she is elected again, we will see it as a declaration that for the people of Israel, everything happened for the best. If you give them your vote, you are preventing an investigation for us, leaving my mother crushed over a picture, and telling Meital she can turn in her grave." She concluded with a heartfelt plea: "It is your full right, but I beg you, give it another thought. If not for me, for her."
Adam also shared a response from a right-wing follower who stated, "I am very right-wing, always vote for Bibi, but not this time... When you are the prime minister and something like this happens, you are guilty. The biggest guilty party. When I put a different slip of paper in soon, it will be for Meital." Adam responded emotionally, "If you think of her at the ballot box, I will feel like the best sister in the world for the first time in 3 years."
