The "Amcha Yisrael" party has issued a sharp condemnation of Communications Minister Shlomo Karai, who claimed in a Channel 14 interview that Ofir Winter, a candidate, is "on the side of Palestine." The party defended Winter, highlighting the sacrifices he made for his views during his military service and asserting that he does not need to prove his right-wing credentials to anyone, especially not to Karai or other Likud members.
"Amcha Yisrael" warned that Karai's statements are harming the right-wing bloc and alienating voters, calling his remarks a "wild incitement show" that endangers the entire right. The party stated that the public disdains such accusations, particularly against Winter and "Israeli hero" Yosef Haddad, who was injured in military service and has long advocated for Israel abroad. They also noted that Winter was previously desired for a high position within the Likud party.
The party rejected Karai's claims, emphasizing that such statements cause disgust among many on the right and drive voters away. They urged Karai and his associates to focus on constructive plans for the nation rather than engaging in "despicable statements, nonsense, and slander." The party concluded that these remarks further underscore the need for "new and clean people in Israeli politics."
