Israeli singer Idan Amadi has announced his intention to vote for the "Reservists and Economists" party, led by Yoaz Hendel and Yaron Zelekha, in the upcoming elections. Amadi shared this in a video posted to his Instagram account two days before the vote.
In the video, Amadi reflected on the current political climate, noting the intense animosity between political rivals. He cited examples such as the inclusion of Eliyahu Deri in a list, a bereaved mother facing online criticism, and Yair Golan, whom he disagrees with politically but respects for his actions on October 7th. He also mentioned Shira Shapira, mother of fallen soldier Aner Shapira, who is being called a "traitorous leftist" for running on another list.
Amadi urged the public to vote based on their values and beliefs, rather than strategic considerations like the electoral threshold. He encouraged voters to consider love for Israel and choose the leader they believe can guide the nation forward after years of internal strife, advising against focusing on election math.
He then explicitly stated his vote for Hendel and Zelekha, whom he has known for years. Amadi expressed his belief in Hendel's leadership and vision, and in the concept of a "third bloc" aiming to unite Zionist parties for a broad coalition government. He concluded by emphasizing that narrow governments have caused damage and wishing for genuine love for Israel.
