Nobel Prize Laureate Professor Yisrael Aumann has joined the new party established by MKs Effie Eitam and Rabbi Yitzchak Levy and is calling on the public to follow his lead.

The new party, called Achi (My Brother) - an acronym for Land, Social Justice and Judaism - promises to compile its party list through direct primaries.

MK Eitam said that Prof. Aumann is participating in drawing up the party's platform, but doubts the Nobel Laureate will be interested in running in the primaries himself.
