Instagram star and television presenter Maayan Adam, known for the determination and directness that have defined both her career and her handling of personal crises, is once again causing a stir on social media regarding the political landscape in Israel.
Adam, who frequently shares her views on a variety of issues with her followers, was watching the news on Channel 12 last night when the party leaders were presented ahead of the upcoming elections. The media personality expressed her deep shock upon realizing that not a single woman is heading a party.
'I looked at it, and suddenly I got a knife in the stomach,' Adam wrote in a poignant post to her followers. She continued by raising difficult questions: 'Isn't there even one? One who wants to? One who can? One who will be a party leader? 50% of the population and not even 1% of leaders?'. She concluded her sharp remarks with a firm call: 'We need to do some soul-searching.'
Adam, who previously served as spokesperson for Minister of Transport Miri Regev, often speaks out on political and public issues. Recently, she also caused a stir online when she sharply criticized decisions regarding gender segregation during a live broadcast on Channel 12.
