Ofer Winter, chairman of the Amcha Israel party, has launched a strong counterattack against Communications Minister Shlomo Karai, who accused him of supporting a Palestinian state. Winter stated that Karai's "wild incitement" endangers the entire right-wing movement and highlights the need for "new and clean people in Israeli politics."

Winter further asserted that Karai and his associates have lost all restraint, particularly in light of Karai's remarks on Channel 14 this morning. Karai had claimed that Winter was "on the side of Palestine," which Winter described as a "sick war" waged with "unbelievable lies" against himself, a decorated brigadier general (res.), and members of the Amcha Israel list.

The Amcha Israel party added that Winter has paid a heavy price for his views during his military service and does not need to prove his right-wing credentials to anyone, especially not to Karai or other Likud members who are partners in these "despicable attacks." The party believes the public rejects these statements and does not believe the slanders against Winter, who was previously considered for the third spot on the Likud list, or against Yosef Haddad, an "Israeli hero" wounded in military service who has fought for Israel abroad.
