Fuites provenant du prétendu parti sioniste le plus à gauche, les Démocrates. Lors d’une réunion interne là-bas, Gaby Lasky, qui occupe la sixième place sur la liste, s’est plainte que le chef du parti, Yair Golan, insistait pour appeler la Cisjordanie « Judée et Samarie ». Golan a répondu que ce n’est « pas un terme de droite » et a insisté pour continuer à l’appeler ainsi. Voilà la gauche israélienne, utilisant une terminologie biblique pour revendiquer un droit divin à occuper la Palestine.
