Simcha Rothman, Chairman of the Constitution, Law and Justice Committee, eulogized social activist Shifi Paz, who recently passed away. In a post, Rothman described Paz as "a friend and partner, a larger-than-life woman." He recounted their long-standing acquaintance, highlighting her ability to unite people and connect social struggles with a healthy national outlook.
Rothman recalled first hearing about Paz years ago as someone fighting for the neighborhoods of South Tel Aviv against "infiltrators" and noted her remarkable ability to gather devoted individuals. He emphasized her deep understanding of how the state and its systems operate, and how "agents of chaos" in Israeli society work to divide people.
He further described Paz's unique talent for bringing people together, noting that her birthday parties included individuals from "all corners of the nation." Rothman also remembered her strength in difficult situations, her ability to be tough yet smile and crack a joke, and her clear understanding that the struggle over the justice system was intrinsically linked to the plight of South Tel Aviv residents, particularly concerning High Court rulings on infiltrators.
Rothman stated that Paz, whom he described as a "Tel Aviv leftist who woke up and chose the people of Israel," connected social activism to a sound national concept. He shared that he met with her family by her bedside and observed the love that existed among them despite political differences. Rothman concluded his tribute by calling her "my Shifi," a friend, partner, fighter, and a larger-than-life woman.
