Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleFormer Peace Now chair and one-time Meretz party leadership candidate Avi Buskila announces that he is joining the newly-formed Israel Democratic Party headed by Ehud Barak.
“I am excited and proud to join the struggle to save Israeli democracy. This is no longer an election campaign, but a fateful choice on the vision of the State of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state,” Buskila says in a statement.
“These days, as Netanyahu and his emissaries continue to tear Israeli society apart, we offer another way, a way of working together and reuniting Israeli society,” he adds.
