Haredi party holds secret meeting with leftist former general

In a sign of how the Haredi parties are sadly more than willing to endanger the right-wing for the sake of their own personal agendas that do more to hurt the country, especially after October 7, 2023, UTJ's Moshe Gafni met with leftist Gadi Eisenkot to build up ties with him:

The chairman of the "Yashar" party, Gadi Eisenkot, and the chairman of Degel Hatorah, MK Moshe Gafni, met last week for a secret meeting, Channel 12 News revealed.

The meeting took place shortly after the leader of the Lithuanian haredi community, Rabbi Dov Lando, announced the dissolution of the right-wing bloc.

According to the report, the atmosphere during the meeting was highly positive, signaling a surprising strengthening of ties between the former IDF Chief of Staff and haredi party leadership.

The sit-down between the two has generated significant interest across the political spectrum, particularly against the backdrop of the Draft Law controversy currently at the center of public debate. While Eisenkot publicly asserts that equal burden of service is a red line for him, behind the scenes, haredi politicians view him as the most pragmatic partner for a compromise.

Sources close to Eisenkot declined to confirm or deny the meeting but hinted that he is "working in numerous ways to advance the elections and bring down the government."

Gafni's office issued a vague response, stating that they "do not comment on meetings Gafni holds with various public figures."

This is absolutely atrocious, with the worst part being that UTJ's voters could accept any deals made between them virtually unquestioned, and over 2 decades ago, UTJ did make a faustian pact with Ariel Sharon in his last days as premier, leading to the "disengagement", which has since led to October 7, 2023. Now, it looks like they're willing to do that again, no matter what long range horror it could one day lead to, and makes clear why socialist ultra-Orthodox parties like Gafni's are such a fiasco for Israel.
