Nearly 100 bereaved families, part of the "Choosing Life" forum, have sent an impassioned appeal to the leaders of the "Change Bloc," urging them not to cooperate with or sit in the Knesset with Arab parties. The families warned in a signed letter that the bloc must not form a government with those who supported the murder of their loved ones, stating, "We will not forgive you!"
The appeal comes amid ongoing political maneuvering following recent elections, where the "Change Bloc" is seeking to form a coalition government. The families' strong stance highlights a deep moral and political divide regarding the legitimacy of involving parties perceived as hostile to Israel's security in governmental decision-making.
The "Choosing Life" forum, representing families who lost relatives in conflicts and terror attacks, has historically taken a firm stance on national security issues. Their direct appeal to the "Change Bloc" leaders signifies their intent to influence the composition of the next government, emphasizing that collaboration with parties they deem supportive of terrorism is unacceptable and unforgivable.
