Meretz throws Ehud Barak a lifering with a merger as his party's prospects sink

The anti-Zionist, anti-religious Meretz party is forming an alliance with Ehud Barak as his reception began to slip following the news he'd associated with Jeffrey Epstein, all for the sake of toppling Benjamin Netanyahu:
This is decidedly atrocious news, proving how morally bankrupt the left is, and not true to their slogans at all. And what "democratic" values do they actually uphold? None that I can think of.
In a dramatic reshuffle on the Left, the far-left Meretz and former Prime Minister Ehud Barak's Israel Democratic Party will be running on a joint ticket in the Sept. 17 election under the name Democratic Union, with Labor MK Stav Shafir as No. 3, the party leaders announced Thursday morning.What's really disturbing is whether there's a segment of the public out there who're willing to vote for them despite the Epstein scandal. And whether they'll succeed in wiping out the Labor party all for the sake of this. It's a valid worry, and for now, it unmasks Meretz as not true to any claim they make that they're in favor of women's rights, when they're willing to associate with somebody whose own connections are that repellent.
According to the agreement reached between the parties, Meretz leader Nitzan Horowitz will hold the No. 1 slot on the list, followed by Shafir. Barak will be placed 10th at his own insistence, according to a statement released by the faction Thursday. He will, however, be guaranteed the first pick of ministerial posts if the party enters the government.
Former GOC Northern Command Maj. Gen. Yair Golan, who recently joined Barak's party, was allotted the third slot on the list, with former Meretz leader Tamar Zandberg placed fourth. The top 10 places also reserve two other slots for candidates from Barak's party.
Shafir decided to leave Labor after she failed to convince new Labor chairman Amir Peretz to run on a joint ticket with Meretz and Barak.

Sir Winston Churchill said this in
a parliamentary debate 1921 June 14:
“The Wahabis*, Churchill noted, “profess a life
of exceeding austerity, and what they practice
themselves they rigorously enforce on others.
They hold it as an article of duty, as well as
of faith, to kill all who do not share their opinions
and make slaves of their wives and children.
Women have been put to death in Wahabi
villages for simply appearing in the streets.
It is a penal offense to wear a silk garment.
Men have been killed for smoking a cigarette…”
* HISTORY NOTE: In July 2004,
the 9/11 Commission identified Wahabism
as a cause of Islamic Terrorism.

You have seen the terraces on the hills which used to be
cultivated, which under Arab rule have remained a desert.”

Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:
“It is true that the American legal system
derives much of its content from the Old Testament
[also known as the Jewish Bible or Tanach]...
When we were growing up, my friends and I
would take great pride in discovering the
Jewish sources of American laws, such as:
the privilege against self-incrimination,
the requirement of two witnesses for
certain types of crime, and the very idea
that punishment must be proportionate
to the crime committed.”

===================================
Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz
grew up Orthodox but later became secular.
He said this about Orthodox Judaism,
many years after he quit it:
“I cannot leave my progeny any legacy
comparable to the Orthodox commitment to,
and intimate knowledge of, Jewish tradition
and practice that my predecessors left me.
Though I have not abandoned my Jewishness
– far from it – I have also not carried
on the tradition of daily religious
observance and total immersion in
the sources of the tradition.
Sometimes I regret not having done so.”
