Ex-IDF general Gal Hirsch launches party, aims to become police minister
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleRetired IDF brigadier general Gal Hirsch, a controversial former candidate to be Israel’s top cop, launches his new political party, Shield of Israel, and says he aims to become public security minister in the next government.
Hirsch earlier this month announced the formation of his new party that will run in the April 9 elections. However, no poll conducted since has predicted he will succeed in entering the Knesset.
“I will make sure we have an excellent, quality, strong and proud police force, and that all security and law enforcement forces have checks and balances,” Hirsch tells his supporters.
