New Right MK Kahane said threatening to quit if party runs with Kahanists
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleNew Right MK Matan Kahane has told party leader Naftali Bennett to leave him out if New Right agrees to run with the far-right Otzma Yehudit in the upcoming elections, Channel 13 news reports.
“If [Otzma Yehudit leader Itamar] Ben Gvir is in, I’m going home,” the network quotes Kahane telling associates.
The report comes after New Right agreed to a joint run with National Union in the March 2 elections, with the two parties calling on Jewish Home to team up with them.
But Jewish Home already agreed to run with Otzma Yehudit, whose leaders include followers of the late extremist rabbi Meir Kahane.
