Political commentator Amit Segal sharply criticized segments of the national religious public on Thursday, citing election results and efforts by the "change bloc" to form a government with ultra-Orthodox parties. In a post on X, Segal expressed pity for "naive national religious people" who for three years decried subservience to the ultra-Orthodox. He accused them of being influenced by anonymous campaigns against the ultra-Orthodox, funded by the Kaplan protest movement, only to later hear from "change bloc" members and media representatives that the ultra-Orthodox are the "perfect partner" for forming a government.
Segal further stated, "No sector has arisen as easily influenced as they are." This criticism comes amid reports that figures within the United Torah Judaism party are willing to consider cooperating with National Unity Chairman Gadi Eisenkot and potentially support a government led by him, provided a conscription exemption law is advanced.
