Q&A: Yaron Zelekha
Yaron Zelekha
Question
Hello Rabbi,
Not long ago an interview came out between Daniel Dushi and Yaron Zelekha. I was interested to know what you think about Yaron Zelekha. Do you think it would be worth voting for him in the elections?
Answer
I haven’t heard the interview. Is he running again? I find that hard to believe.
My impression is that he’s a populist. He’ll always say the opposite of what’s commonly accepted, and with him everything is always simple and clear. He’s a kind of know-it-all. In any case, in my opinion he has no chance whatsoever of getting past the electoral threshold. He already tried in the past. So I don’t see any point in addressing it at all.
Discussion on Answer
I still don’t know. This isn’t the place to write a detailed essay about how one should vote and what my overall political outlook is.
Following up on that,
as of today, who would you vote for in the elections?
And if you don’t have a specific person, then what values would you consider in deciding who is closest to them?
