  • Bereaved families urge voting for right-wing parties to cancel Oslo Accords and increase West Bank control.
  • The "Homecoming Forum" warns central Israeli cities are vulnerable to terror infrastructure.
  • Leaders state October 7th attacks proved fences are insufficient against terror.
  • They believe restoring Israeli control will prevent future massacres.
  • The forum is directing its message to voters ahead of upcoming elections.

The "Homecoming Forum," an organization of bereaved parents and families, is calling on the public to vote for right-wing parties committed to canceling the Oslo Accords and re-establishing Israeli control and settlement in areas A and B of the West Bank. This appeal follows a recent campaign by the forum, which urged party leaders to present their plans for the West Bank and pledge to these actions. With elections approaching, the forum is now directing its message to voters, warning that the proximity of cities like Kfar Saba, Ra'anana, and Herzliya to terror infrastructure in the West Bank necessitates a policy change. Forum leaders argue that restoring Israeli control and settlement is the only way to prevent residents of central Israel from becoming the next "Gaza Envelope." Eliab Levi and Yehoshua Sherman, both leaders of the forum who lost sons in the war, stated that the current election is about everyone's lives. They emphasized that the October 7th events proved that relying on fences against a terror state is insufficient and that leaving areas in the hands of Palestinian militants is unacceptable. "To prevent the next massacre in the heart of the country, so that our bereavement does not reach your homes, the public must vote for right-wing parties that practically commit to eliminating the Oslo concept," they added.
