Politcs & Security problems

Party leaders across the political spectrum took aim at the security and foreign policy credentials of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at an Institute for National Security Studies conference on Monday.

Zionist Union head Isaac Herzog, Yesh Atid chairman Yair Lapid and Meretz leader Zehava Gal-On all took Netanyahu to task for making Israel less safe, harming relations with the United States, and enabling a feeble economy that does little to safeguard its poor.

“This is an election that will restore hope and independence and will rectify the damage done to our security in the past six years under Netanyahu,” Herzog said.
