Am Shalem director Rabbi Haim Amsalem who is running in the Jewish Home party for the next elections, believes that the investigations against Aryeh Deri will cause the dissolution of the Shas party in the next elections.
Amsalem has called on people to vote for the Jewish Home party, a Zionist party in which Sephardic Jews can feel comfortable. He estimates that his presence in the Jewish Home party will add 3 mandates to the party.
