During the 'HaPatriotim' program on Channel 14, panelist Yotam Zmiri sharply criticized Yair Golan, the Chairman of the Labor Party, alleging that Golan's objective is to remove all Jewish symbols from public life in Israel. Zmiri warned that according to polls, Golan's party is projected to become the second-largest in a future left-wing government, which would grant him significant political power.
Zmiri explained his concern over Golan's potential influence, stating, "Yair Golan, according to all the polls, is likely the second-largest party in the next government if the left wins. When you are the second-largest party, you get what you want." He added that in such a scenario, Golan could demand and receive any ministerial position, including Defense Minister, and advance his agenda unimpeded.
The panelist drew a parallel between Golan's party and Arab parties, asserting they share a common goal. "There are two parties that want to erase Judaism from the public sphere. There are Ra'am and the Joint List, who want to erase it in their way... and 'Democrats' (Golan's party), whose overall goal is to erase Judaism. You won't see Judaism anymore," Zmiri claimed.
Zmiri concluded his remarks by commenting on what he described as an ideological collaboration. "All the eliminators of Jews have united," he stated, adding, "I truly think we have reached the peak."
