  • Haredi parties are criticized for lacking achievements and losing voter support.
  • Arieh Deri's leadership of Shas is called a political failure.
  • Shas has reportedly achieved its worst-ever electoral results under Deri.
  • The Haredi public feels political operatives are self-serving.

Haredi parties are facing criticism for a lack of tangible achievements during the recent term, leading to growing disillusionment among their constituents. The Haredi public is increasingly realizing that political operatives are primarily self-serving, resulting in a rising number of voters abandoning the two long-standing Haredi parties.

Arieh Deri, specifically, is described as a failure, not for neglecting public welfare, but in terms of political power, which is how he reportedly measures himself. An analysis suggests that Deri's return to lead the Shas movement has led the party to its worst-ever results.
