One of the biggest disappointments of the primaries for the Likud list is former minister Ayub Kara, who was relegated to the unrealistic 44th place. Tonight (Thursday) Kara spoke with Aryeh Eldad and Roni Bar On on 103FM.
Netanyahu on the results of the Likud primaries: “Explosion of a list, a good sign for the elections”
“All in all, I already see these struggles as another proposal that occasionally needs to be passed. In my opinion there has been a crisis since I left the government, I left and they replaced me. Those who came in my place had serious problems in the system that didn’t even come out, I won’t get into that,” Petah read his words.
Regarding the words of MK Petin Mola, who said that if they didn’t want him, it means they don’t want Druze on the list, he said: “I don’t think so, the Likud party was the first to include a Druze on its list, there was never a problem. Now, why is it now? After all, he was the last, he should ask himself why this happened in his time.”

Later, Kara claimed that many Druze voters abandoned the party due to the controversial “Nationality Law”: “Since the Nationality Law, there has been a problem among the Druze who succeeded in inciting them against the Likud, and then many of them left the center-left. I explain, all Druze want to be part of the Jewish state and not be Outside of this law, that’s the whole argument, they’re not against the law. Then someone told them they were second class and managed to incite them, a fact that Gantz got most of their votes.”
“I’m a little worried about this because in the state’s opinion we have to fix this situation, it was an internal decision on which he received the backing of the former prime minister that he can take back. The decision was two months ago. In the eyes of the Israeli public, being so symbolic is not in the best interest of anyone, and I am speaking from a state point of view and not from a Druze point of view. A ruling party must give a safe place that represents the entire minority population. In the end, every government in the world that has a population with a relevant difference simply gives affirmative discrimination. They send you to compete in my country and tell you ‘you will erase the minority slot if you choose’, that means they put 200 kilos on your back and you will run, everyone will be against you. It is not easy with this method to pass, I hope they find the balance that can be proportionate to get this slot Further forward, there are armors and there is a possibility according to a decision to do it,” he finished reading his words.
