A reader wrote this in a letter to the editor in the Jerusalem Post;

The results of the Feiglin-Netanyahu contest are not an honest reflection of how all Likud members feel. You have to be a member for 14 months before you are allowed to vote, which stopped many of us from expressing who we would like to lead the Likud. The numbers could have been very different if there had been true democracy, and l feel very cheated.

It’s difficult to ascertain, from this brief blurb, which candidate the writer would support. But it is important that the reasons and background behind why there is a 16 month waiting period before voting eligibility need to be explained. This explanation is particularly necessary in light of re-elected Likud leader Netanyahu’s blatant attempt to strong-arm changes in Likud party membership and voting rules in attempt to squash Moshe Feiglin and Manhigut Yehudit. Also, the impact of any rule changes regarding Manhigut Yehudit needs to be understand. read more

Please note; this author recognizes and respects David Bedein’s moral integrity as one of perhaps two, possibly three credible journalists in ALL of Israel’s media (and a former Philadelphian, too). The issue is NOT with Bedein’s piece, but with a mindset in the S’fardi sector which gives rise to what Bedein detects. read more
