A new face to Israeli Politics!

Last night I went to the kickoff of, what I think, is Israel's most important and promising party ever: http://hayeruka-meimad.org.il/english.

This blog post represents my official endorsement for the Tnua Yeruka-Meimad התנועה הירוקה-מימד party.

In the Tel Aviv exhibition grounds I sat and listened to the speeches of people who are now entering the political arena to really try and push for an Eco-Social agenda. It was great. The most impressive in my opinion are Prof. Alon Tal, who, in addition to his extensive professional bio, also plays saxophone, guitar and violin in a country bluegrass band, and performed at the kickoff!
Of course MK Rabbi Michael Melchior, the #1 seat of the party, gave the most impressive speech. I think Becca summed it up best by saying that "they just really exemplify what I am looking for the Jewish State to stand for".

So get out the word and get people to vote for them!

Can you explain the difference between the Tenuah Yerukah and the other Green party?

There is no "other green party". There is only another party with the word "green" in its name.
You can search the internet to easily find why the "other green party" is not green. There is no need to detail it here.

In the Israeli Green Movement and Meimad you will find the people who are fighting to improve our environment and society for many years now. There are the people we need in the Knesset.
