First publication: The sixth candidate on Shas's list refuses to leave his position - Is it just for campaign needs?
i24NEWS has learned that Dror Amos, placed in the realistic sixth spot on the Shas list, is currently refusing to resign from his position as head of the religious council in Haifa. The move raises questions about whether the new "soldiers' representative" is intended for the Knesset or for campaign purposes.
i24NEWS has learned that Dror Amos, placed in the realistic sixth spot on the Shas list, is currently refusing to resign from his position as head of the religious council in Haifa. Only yesterday, Amos went on unpaid leave, ostensibly leaving him the option to return to his position later. The move raises questions, particularly given his high placement on the list: the sixth spot on Shas's list is considered highly realistic, and if Amos is indeed preparing to serve as a Knesset member, why is he insisting on keeping a door open to his current position? The article raises the question of whether Shas's new "soldiers' representative" is truly intended for the Knesset, or whether his main role lies in the campaign.
