Radio host Amichai Etali announced on his program with Erel Segal on 103fm that he is leaning towards voting for Yoaz Hendel in the upcoming elections. Etali explained his preference for Hendel, who leads the Reservists and Economic party, citing Hendel's combination of right-wing stances and significant security background. He also praised Hendel's lack of subservience to the ultra-Orthodox parties, contrasting him with others like Smotrich. Etali stated that Hendel's actions during the war, including establishing the "Be'eri Battalion" and his personal sacrifices, demonstrate his commitment to security.
Etali also addressed the post-October 7th political landscape, noting that while he is not a fan of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his priority is dealing with Hamas. He believes there is a lack of a suitable right-wing alternative to Netanyahu currently. Etali elaborated that Hendel offers a right-wing security approach and political independence, particularly from the ultra-Orthodox parties, which he finds appealing.
When asked by co-host Erel Segal why he wouldn't consider voting for Brigadier General (Res.) Ofer Winter, Etali expressed concern about Winter's declared allegiance to Netanyahu's bloc. Segal suggested that Winter and his associates are making strategic errors by choosing battles against opponents like Lieberman and Hendel, rather than focusing on figures like them.
