The Labor Party conference approved today (Friday) the union agreement to establish the Democrats Party. In addition, a series of resolutions were approved that establish the position and control of the party chairman, Yair Golan, in the party apparatus. The agreement was approved by an absolute majority of the conference members, and only one member objected.
Golan said at the opening of the Democratic Party conference that “the approval of the political merger with Meretz, which is being submitted this morning for your approval, is a necessary and historic move. It changes the political reality, it corrects past mistakes, I am very proud of this move. The agreement strengthens the camp, reduces Netanyahu’s chances And his government remains in power and is a significant reinforcement for us to become a governmental alternative. But, its public, value and political importance is higher than any price. Already today, many representatives of the protest and civil society are marching with us.”

Later in his speech, Golan warned Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu lest he thwart the deal for the abductees. “I would like to warn the Prime Minister from here. Do not dare to torpedo a deal once more. Do not dare to involve political and survival considerations and do not dare to abandon them once more. These are fateful days for them and for us. There will be no revival for Israel without their return. We have a duty, each and every one of us, It is moral to return them,” said Golan.
Earlier today, he addressed the members of the party and said: “Today’s meeting is an integral part of the renewal, awakening and resurrection of the democratic camp in Israel. This is an important day in our becoming a governing, ethical and practical alternative to the worst default government in the country’s history. We must rise above personal considerations. We must not We must engage in small politics. We must understand the magnitude of the hour, and the urgent need for human leadership, leadership that will bring healing and revival to the citizens of Israel.
“Reality called us the opportunity and the duty to lead the correction required for the establishment of the national house,” he continued. “Israel is at the greatest security low in its history, and Israel’s deterrence capacity has suffered a fatal blow. We will have to restore the IDF, but we will need much more than that. A vision for national security must be formulated, in which political wisdom will be combined alongside military capability; regional alliances with superpower backing; Internal national resilience with offensive offensive capability; and well stocked with a trained army. Above all, we will have to go back and find out what is the righteousness of the way, what is the purity of weapons, what builds an army and a society, and how to block with all our might the formation of a vengeful, extreme and violent society. Israel’s soul is under serious threat, and we must consolidate the forces within us, in order to save ourselves from what has destroyed so many nations throughout history: deep corruption, excessive sectoralism, and extreme nationalism.”

Golan then referred to the merger agreement of the Labor and Meretz parties: “The approval of the political merger with Meretz, which is being submitted this morning for your approval, is a necessary and historic move. It changes the political reality, it corrects past mistakes, I am very proud of this move. The agreement strengthens the camp, reduces the chances of Netanyahu and his government to remain in power and is a significant boost for us on the way to becoming a governing alternative. As with any agreement, its public, value and political importance is greater than any price. Meretz was our political partner, and today it is becoming meat We announce. Alongside her, already today, many representatives from the protest and from among the civil society are marching with us.”
He then marked the political line and his vision: “We will have to decide between annexation and secession. Israel needs and wants to separate from the Palestinians by giving civil responsibility to the Palestinian Authority, marking future borders, and maintaining full ground security freedom of action in any area where a threat arises. We will not abandon the security of the citizens of Israel, And we will not turn the Zionist dream into a dream of bi-nationalism followed by complete destruction! Those who acted decisively to weaken the Palestinian Authority and to strengthen the radical axis of Hamas brought upon us the October failure. “.
