Do you know who Lucy Aharish is?
Tal Ramat Gan
Yes
From where?
Newspapers, news, tv
If she ran to be Prime Minister
would you vote for her?
I don't think so
Why not?
I don't know her political platform
where she is coming from what her ideology is
I only know her name so not that much
If she proves herself
But I think I already have a (political) direction
and she doesn't seem like she is in my direction
What is your direction?
You said we wouldn't get into politics
I didn't want politics
What is my (political) direction?
I believe we need to find a balance
There needs to be a balance so things are good for all sides
But that is what she seems
She is Muslim that...
Yes but I don't...
It is not comfortable for me (to talk about this)
I prefer not to talk politics
What aren't you saying?
I believe more that
Golda Meir said a very nice thing
"If Israel lays down it's weapons"
Sorry "The day that the Arabs lay down their weapons"
"that day there will be peace between Arabs and Jews"
"If Israel lays down it's weapons, there won't be any Jews"
I think that co-existence has a large question mark
But
again, this is politics it is dealing with nonsense
Daniel and Sarit Hadera
You know who Lucy Aharish is There are many that don't
Yes
And you really like her?
Very much
If she ran for Prime Minister
would you vote for her?
For Lucy? Of course
What kind of question is that
I would
Who do you usually vote for?
Left, right (as if I didn't know)
We vote right wing
Very right wing
Very? Very right wing
What does that mean?
I am right wing
But what do you vote? - We are not extremists
Not extremists
Not Kahana
We really love Lucy
really love her
I wish all the Arabs here were just like her
and also the Jews
then things would be good in the world
We like good Arabs like her
Do you know who Lucy Aharish is?
Yes
Daniel Jerusalem
If she would run for Prime Minister
would you vote for her?
First I would have to see what her views are
to see what she plans to do in her position
I can't jump to a decision
Let's say that what she says as her views during the news (she gives commentary often)
which is very middle of the road
That is not how I see her -No?
No, I try to check as much as possible
I don't really see the news
But for me, sure, why not (be Prime Minister)
I see no connection to the fact that she is Muslim and Arab
that I don't care about
Do you know who Lucy Aharish is?
Yes
We like her
Do you know her?
Is she that singer? - No
I guess he doesn't
I know the name
The funny tv presenter
she lit the torch for Independence Day
I don't know
Reli Tel Aviv
Would you vote for her if she ran for Prime Minister?
For Prime... I don't know
For the head of the Labour Party maybe I would vote for her
For the Prime Minister that is a big
Why? Why?
Why? Because...
Are you asking because she is Arab?
Yes, that is part of why I ask
You are being stereotypical
but
Look, I am divided
on the one hand I am happy because she is a woman
On the other hand
You are racist! Because she is Arab, you don't like her?
On the other hand
she has no political experience
Is that the reason or it's because she is Muslim?
No way, not because she is Muslim
Would you vote for someone with lots of experience who is Muslim?
Who? Ahmad Tibi? (Arab Israeli politician)
That is why I chose
Lucy (as an example) because she is much more "Israeli"
(meaning culturally)
than Ahmad Tibi Ahmad Tibi is very
fringe (for Jewish Israelis)
It's an interesting question
So then tell the truth
Yes I might
I wouldn't disqualify her
I would want to hear her views on things that
are important
True, it depends what she says
Niv Jerusalem
Yes, no doubt
I already vote for a party
that includes Arab members
Which one?
I voted for Labour
and Meretz
and both of them have
But so does Likud pretty much all of them do
Maybe they are not very supportive (of Arabs)
Nitzan Jerusalem
Omer Jerusalem
No
I don't watch Israeli tv
Do you know who Lucy Aharish is?
I have no idea who that is
Akko
I also don't know - Isn't she from that thing?
The woman from tv
You don't know her?
Ask him a different question
Do you guys know who Lucy Aharish is?
Yes Yes
See! they knew
If she was running for PM would you vote for her?
Shir Tel Aviv
I don't know if I would vote for her
because I don't know what her political platform is
but I really respect her
She is a respected journalist and does very important things
she has amazing opinions
she is an incredible interviewer
and a great...
She is not a politician but she is great at what she does
Who do you normally vote for?
It depends
in the last elections I voted
Zionist Camp (Labour Party)
Let's say she was running to be the head of that party
It really depends
Again, if she proposes things that I believe in
then there is a chance that I would
Dor Tel Aviv
It depends on the circumstances
The circumstances that because she is an Arab
that it makes it more difficult to vote for her
because maybe she won't serve the interests of all of us
I don't know It depends what she proposes
and how she wants to accomplish that
If it puts the Jewish majority in danger
so then maybe no
I don't now
In general, I don't think her being Arab is a factor, she is really respected
What were you saying? Sorry
It just depends on the circumstances the time, the place
It all depends on the circumstances
Every thing that is out there
will have an influence
like in the past with the wars
If it impacts security, many vote Bibi
Everything has an impact
But I am talking about you
For me, it depends
it depends what is her ideology
where it's coming from
everything
Last elections I wasn't here so I didn't vote
If she were the head of
the party you usually vote for
or close
Depends
It depends what my views are at that time
It is a question of if you would vote for someone Arab
In it's essence, that is what I am asking
Of course, it's clear
It depends on what my views - It is not entirely clear
I don't know
In my view, it is clear that
ok, not entirely clear
If my views
the ideology I have
then yes, but if not, no
It really depends on the time and the place
That is what I am asking about within your ideology...
My ideology depends
on the time and place
Would you vote for someone Arab? That is the question
No
because of the meaning "Arab"
but it depends
It is important to make clear
this is not from racism
I have no problem with Arabs It is all good with them
I think she is an amazing woman and she needs to be successful
She has to have a stage she does amazing work
with what she does to bring the two peoples together
But to choose her for Prime Minister
is more problematic
Like what? Explain to those outside
Why is it problematic?
Because we are a Jewish country
and there is an Israeli-Palestinian conflict
that does not seem to be coming to any solutions at the moment
So it could be that choosing someone Arab to lead the country
will give an advantage to the other side
that is currently in conflict with us
If there were a situation of peace
and everything was ok we wouldn't care
then great
I really respect her work I think she is an amazing woman
But
I personal watch her
she does amazing things
I even think she is really trying to brige between us
and also very pro-Israel
she has a great agenda
But it could be that for Prime Minister
is problematic to choose a leader
that doesn't represent the Jewish population
Give an example where that could happen
What?
That because she is Arab it can be a problem
Right now because the conflict (with Palestinians) is not solved
has no solution and there are wars
that break out almost every summer
so then there could be circumstances
she could put forward an agenda that doesn't represent the majority
which is a Jewish population
and in the end
this is a Jewish country
there is no division between religion and state
so there could be a situation
a conflict where she is not on our side
and that is threatening
Also how one deals with the usual
terror bombings
terror attacks and rockets
things like that
It could be that dealing with it will be different as an Arab leader
I don't know what to anticipate
it could be that from that perspective...
Again, this isn't about racism
I think it is important to integrate (Arabs)
to raise the Arabs socio-economic levels
to give them more
and I am relatively on the left side politically
But even as a leftist
I don't know if I would vote for her as Prime Minister
If it was for parliament member
I would be very happy about that
I don't know about Prime Minister
