The prices of apartments to buy and rent have skyrocketed recently and have created unrest and a call for protest among young people and young families. As a result, protest tents have already begun to appear in Pardes Hanna and Be’er Sheva, 11 years after the last protest. For that, Yitzhak ShabtaivOne of the leaders of the protest in Pardes Hanna Karkur, spoke with Yinon Magal and Ben Caspit on 103FM.
In his opening remarks, Shabtaev said: “We are your sons, part of this people, we are young people, adults, teenagers, we are the beating heart of the people. If we can not rent an apartment, I am not talking about buying, in the lack of governance we have no way to insure the “Our future. What will happen to us? We in Pardes Hanna Karkur set up tents, raised a shout and said enough, we want the right to live here with dignity.”
“I have been renting for 23 years, the rent is going up madly, there are people here who want NIS 7,000 for three rooms, people here have gone crazy. Investors have come, and they decide to coordinate the price between them. It is not something controlled by someone, these are a company that can raise the price then “They are coats. Hundreds of people pass by us, we do shifts in tents, we are working people, there are older people here. We want a tenancy law, to anchor our future, we need to see how the state takes care of making a certain price list,” he added.
Later, he referred to the protest and said: “I understand where we are going, it is not something that will happen in the moment but there will be an understanding that there is no choice. I want them to understand that we will not remain slaves to this method, we will not leave the encampment “That the state will give us a solution. What do you want, for an entire generation to be slaves?”
“I convey to Lieberman and all the friends sitting in their chairs that they will hear us, we do not want words in the air but to live with dignity. I work to roll in the country, not to live, “he concluded.
