Ofer Winter Party Launches Election Campaign Focused on IDF Security Doctrine
Ofer Winter's Amich Yisrael party launched its election campaign on Tuesday, sharply criticizing political and military leaders over security concepts and troop protection policies.
Amich Yisrael party, led by Ofer Winter, unveiled its core election campaign strategy on Tuesday ahead of the upcoming broadcasts and final stretch of the race.
The campaign focuses on the question of who will lead Israel's security and protect IDF soldiers: those who place soldiers' safety above enemy civilians, or those the party defines as "conception-minded officials."
In its first campaign broadcast, the party features statements by former Chief of Staff Gadi Eisenkot, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Democrats Chairman Yair Golan, presenting them as examples of containment and security failures.
The broadcast includes Eisenkot's remarks during his tenure as Chief of Staff regarding rules of engagement, alongside Netanyahu's comments on military morality, and Golan's controversial statements. In contrast, the ad highlights Winter's combat doctrine from Operation Protective Edge as Givati Brigade commander, emphasizing aggressive tactical approaches to protect troops.
Ofer Winter declared in the campaign: "Our soldiers come before enemy civilians! I committed to my people to win and do everything to bring them back home—I keep my word. For one soldier, as far as I'm concerned, a thousand can be killed!"
