Channel 13 News reporter Michael Shemesh launched a sharp attack on leaders of the "change bloc" for their silence amid reports of potential compromises on the conscription law. Shemesh criticized the gap between election campaign promises and current coalition negotiations, stating that those who led the "dismantle the Haredi state" campaign and are now silent are acting with "political hypocrisy."
Shemesh urged elected officials to show responsibility and not hide behind vague language during negotiations. He argued that if they intend to "grossly violate" an election promise, they should at least face their voters to explain their actions. He concluded by criticizing the disappearance of these politicians from the public sphere immediately after the election, noting how "amazing" it is that some politicians who were constantly active "simply evaporated" once the ballots were closed.
