Unlike kook Boris Johnson, the new PM seems like she has her head (and her hair) on straight.
Although not at all a fan of Lapid , this would be a great move and a just one
Might as well, I suppose.
this guy never served in a real army he had his daddy tommy put him in a journalist unit, yet he wants to close down yeshivas and send the bochurim into the tuma IDF.
Lapid is a Bibi wannabee shlepper. Not an inteligent man.
