Ra'am No. 2 Segalovitz Says Eisenkot Won't Have a Government Without Ra'am

Yoav Segalovitz, the No. 2 candidate on Ra'am's Knesset slate, said on Saturday night that Yashar! chairman Gadi Eisenkot "won't have a government without Ra'am." He was responding to Eisenkot's statement in a television interview earlier on Saturday that Ra'am will not be part of a government he leads because it does not accept his conditions, including recognizing Hamas as a terror organization that must be destroyed. "Whoever wants to lead the State of Israel to real change needs to show leadership and not fold before Likud's intimidation campaign," Segalovitz said. He added that Israel needs "deep repair and true partnership" through courageous leadership.
