Former Knesset Member Yehuda Glick announced his intention to vote for the Likud party in the upcoming elections, while simultaneously launching a sharp critique of his party's political strategy and the pressure being exerted on the 'Am Israel' party led by Ofer Vinter. In a personal post, Glick reaffirmed his political loyalty, stating, "I am a Likud member, a Likud supporter, and God willing, I will vote Likud on election day, and I will do everything in my power for the Likud to win these elections."
However, Glick expressed strong disapproval of the Likud's recent campaign to undermine Vinter's list. "Precisely because of this, I cannot understand the logic behind the party's conduct towards the 'Am Israel' party. It is ugly, unfair, and above all, quite foolish," he wrote emphatically. Glick argued that attempting to eliminate Vinter's party harms the entire national camp. "This party appealed to right-wing voters who did not want to vote Likud and saves them from supporting the left bloc. These votes are critical for the right. Going after them, which could cause them to not pass the electoral threshold, is shooting ourselves in the foot."
Glick concluded by expressing deep concern over the election night results, calling the situation "surreal and undignified from any perspective I can understand." He added, "I pray the Likud wins big, unfortunately, now more prayers are needed."
