Labor party leader Yitzchak Herzog continues to gain popularity in the elections polls, now a number of seats ahead of the Likud party.
Herzog on Sunday 24 Adar visited the Kosel. Following the visit Herzog stated that his family is deeply-rooted in Yerushalayim as he is, and he knows how “to maintain the strength of Jerusalem and its residents by his actions, not just by words, more so than all other candidates”.
While at the Kosel Herzog recited Tehillim and recited a tefilla. He also visited the kever of his grandfather, Israel’s first Chief Rabbi, Yitzchak Halevy Herzog ZT”L and his grandmother Sarah Herzog.

Herczog is managing to cash in on ‘Netanyahu fatigue’
The general public may be fatigued, but overnight must wake up and grasp 🙁 Do they really want Netanyahu ‘s career
to now end ?
Do they really?
Herzog is now, of course, obviously saying all the right things..
But recall last year during the anti-marriage bill debate ,he and his party walked out ,because the bill didn’t go far enough!!
liberal; don’t trust them
Ask him what the boarders of Yerushalayim are? Also, that of the rest of Eretz Yisroel, for that matter.
If any politician can be believed, there is no way for him to form a coalition. Khalon said he won’t sit with the Arabs. The Arabs say they won’t sit in the coalition. The Chareidim say they won’t sit with Lapid, though UYJ says they would sit with Meretz, who has the most anti-Torah position of all.
Crazy situation, but it works in our favor, so great!
