| Description | Though many consider Hadash to be an "Arab party," Jewish and Arab leaders from the movement made a campaign stop at the Kol Haneshama Synagogue in Jerusalem Tuesday. Approximately 150 Jews gathered at the Progressive (Reform) synagogue to hear about the party, which does not take a position on Zionism.
In front of the ark sat Dov Khenin, a Jewish human rights lawyer and environmentalist, Khulood Badawi, the party's No. 3 and a well-known young female Arab political and human rights activist, and Dr. Ishai Menuchin, founder of the Yesh Gvul soldier refusenik organization and No. 9 on the party's candidate list.
The audience, however, was not interested in their views on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The party was the first to call for a two-state solution. |
