“There are no parallel lines between him and Rabin”

“I think Gantz is making mistake after mistake,” Reitan said. “Everyone knows the mistakes of the past, they are reflected in all his seats that just disappeared. Did he have a few, around 35? Today he barely passes the blocking percentage. Come and show off Rabin’s legacy, “Fighting the Labor Party is not only a mistake, but there is also no credibility in it. Rabin was a leader who took responsibility for his actions and knew how to look everyone in the eye and say, ‘I am responsible, I am the leader.”

– So you do not see parallel lines between Ganz and Rabin?
“I do not see any parallel lines, I do not see Rabin enter the Netanyahu government, I do not see him, forgive the expression, betray or deceive his voters or say one thing and do the opposite. In fact, he is not telling the truth. Once he has lied “He lost his seat.”

– Maybe he will rise in the seats, and he may turn to the disappointed members of the Labor Party, who some think are reminiscent of Meretz.
“I do not agree. I do not mention Meretz, I was never among its voters and certainly honored in its place, but Labor is a party with a heritage, past, present and future, and it comes from somewhere else – of a renewable party. “See – it did not work. There were conspiracies, all kinds of agreements that led to the deterioration and situation we reached today.”

– There is a problem along the way because the strong Labor Party drops below the blocking percentage the little sister Meretz.
“I think we need to look at the polls and see the trends, get closer to the election date and then see the real data. A poll is a poll, we will see a lot more changes. I see it as just encouraging things, that the audience is coming home.”

– Maybe you were wrong not to connect with Meretz?

“I do not think so. It is a fact that the previous connection led to an almost total collapse. Every party needs to maintain its identity and values.”

– Maybe the momentum of the Labor Party has stopped? Maybe the issue around number 7 on the list is the last minefield ahead of the election that could lead to deterioration?

“If we look at the trend of polls then we will no longer see the expression of it. True, there has been a lot of preoccupation with the issue, perhaps too much. By the way, since the court ruled his – most parties are silent. Abtissam Maraana expressed regret, these are things said so long ago a lot of years”.

– She “passes through your throat”?
“The statements are not. But she is – yes. I believe her remorse is sincere and real, unequivocal. After all, she could have gone with Meretz, with the joint list. Why did she come to the Labor Party?”

“Our Knesset is full of shocking statements no less from all directions,” Reitan added. “Perhaps a convicted man will sit with me, not say – convicted – in incitement to racism and support a terrorist organization. So everyone will be held accountable, choose the people. I sit with a woman. “That she receives awards and accolades from universities and organizations for her fight against violence against women. If she tells me – ‘I regret it from the bottom of my heart, I would not have written it otherwise but I would not have written it at all’ – then I think she can be given a chance.” •

– Maybe it will be the reason for drinking votes from Ganz and Meretz.

“I am not a prophet and do not know how to analyze these things, I am also not a political commentator, I can only express my feeling from the people on the ground. Yesterday I was in the south, in Be’er Sheva and the Negev. Before that I was in the north. I get completely different reactions, including people from the left who strengthen Various voices, and voices of a minority within the Labor Party, and an attempt to reach a new dialogue with an entire audience in the State of Israel. The same public that until these elections the Prime Minister took care to ignore, delete, even almost make him an enemy. We will not be in this place. ”

– You mentioned Ben Gvir, it’s interesting to know if there is any political constellation that the Labor Party …

“I will not even let the question end – the answer is no, unequivocally no. I do not see any way in which we can sit with religious Zionism consisting of Noam and Ben Gvir.”

– According to the polls, your place is realistic, and if there are no extraordinary events then we will see you in the next Knesset. Do you know how to mark the issues you would like to promote in the Knesset?
“I come from the world of law, very very jarring to me all the brainwashing we have witnessed in the last decade, if not more, against the courts, the prosecution, the legal advisers. This incitement is dangerous, it will only lead us to a place of dictatorship. Maybe I’m taking it “I am too far away, but I can not sit still. I know how to fight in court and my intention is to fight it and keep it independent and independent.”

– That is, in the distant future, maybe not, the Ministry of Justice.
“I will be a Knesset member and we will talk in a few years.”

“It is shocking, he has to examine himself, why such statements come out of his mouth,” Wright said.

– Do you think there is a connection that this is a woman?
“Also. A contemptuous statement came to him even when he spoke to Yonit Levy, and when Aryeh Golan asked him in the morning – how this number of deaths is possible despite the vaccinations – he boasted solely of his magic, that he brought vaccines. He does not boast of any managerial achievement this year, The individual and that too we must now examine carefully.Once such a legitimate question is asked and he answers as he answers, then he also belittles each of us – his constituents, the dead, the families of the dead. He does not answer any matter-of-fact answer. Say ‘I was wrong’, Say ‘true, I take responsibility for these 6,000 dead too’.

“Whoever can take responsibility for his actions is a true leader, and he would get points for it,” Wright added, “he did just the opposite – he also responded in a merging and horrible way and blamed Shasha Bitton, whom I highly appreciate, and also answered so disparagingly. In all those affected by the Corona crisis. ”
