Heads of institutions, movements, and educational organizations of religious Zionism appealed an hour ago to leaders of the religious Zionist parties urgently calling for preventing the apparent split between the parties in the upcoming elections.
The letter reads:
We, the heads of religious Zionist institutions, movements, and organizations raise a bitter outcry against the conduct of the political leaders of religious Zionism. The in-fighting between you is tearing apart the religious Zionist public and will result in a social rift that will be almost irredeemable. We meet face-to-face every day with our students and graduates and see a close-up of the big crisis.
We appeal to you in the last few hours before the gates close - cancel the decree that was imposed on us and save the people and the country. If you refuse to do so - you will have to face the national religious public to explain to us all the devastation and destruction that this may bring on us. Please G-d grant us success.
The letter is signed by the director of Bnei Akiva yeshivot and Ulpanot Elhanan Galt, Bnei Akiva general secretary Yair Shahal, CEO of the Tzviya Yankee Freedman Network, CEO of the Torah Midrashic Forum for Girls Dr. Yael Arieli, Director of the Lior Lifshitz Community Fund , Secretary-General of the Ariel Youth Movement Dvir Amior and Chairman of the Zionist religious organizations Tzvi Tsivel.
