Amcha Yisrael chairman Ofer Winter commented on an old video in which the party's number two candidate, Yoseph Haddad, is heard expressing support for the establishment of a Palestinian state.
"I am proud of Yoseph Haddad, a Golani soldier who was wounded in combat in Lebanon and is Israel's strongest advocate," Winter said.
He added: "I am proud of a person's ability to change his positions in the right direction. Some people look at the past; we learn from the past to correct the future."
