Assessment
A new political party called Amcha Israel enters the race for the 26th Knesset, led by reserve Brigadier General Ofer Winter. The party's number two slot goes to hasbara activist Yosef Haddad, with a slate heavy on military and reserve personnel, media and legal figures, settlement representatives, and bereaved families.
