Even after a successful election, seasoned right-wing activist Baruch Marzel continues to criticize his long-time partner, Otzma Yehudit chairman MK Itamar Ben-Gvir.

"He says that most Arabs are okay," Marzel told Akiva Novick and Tali Moreno on Kan Reshet Bet radio. He explained how MK Ben-Gvir has become, in his opinion, "too moderate," and emphasized that, "Anyone who voted Balad is the enemy."

Marzel added: "We felt that the ideology was not well thought through, that it was shifting all the time, and that he was choosing a different course of action from us on very important issues. The truth is that Itamar didn't want us with him anymore. We were a burden on him."

Marzel added: "We weren't looking for [ministerial] positions. If I wanted funding for institutions I'm sure he would give it to me."

Marzel is in no hurry to give up on the movement that he helped found: "Otzma Yehudit is ours, and Itamar Ben-Gvir may have to create his own movement. We will run in the next elections, against Itamar, unless our prayers are answered and he repents."
