Former prime minister Ehud Barak revealed the name of his new political party on Saturday evening: Democratic Israel.
The party will begin a digital campaign on Sunday with billboards and street signs saying “State of Netanyahu or State of Israel.”
“The State of Israel is facing a total dismantlement of the Israeli democracy,” Barak said. “It is a strategic threat not smaller than the Iranian threat. The decision for every single one of us is between a State of Netanyahu or a State of Israel; between the destruction of the Israeli democracy, intentional damage to the rule of law, the court of law and the Israeli Police, between the total trampling of the Israeli statehood and solidarity — and the Jewish democratic state that Israel should, may and can be.”
“Now is the time to return the hope and the courage to Israel, to unite and to return Israel to the limits,” Barak continued.
