Eight questions before the vote: the parties’ replies to Abu Ali Express

Two rounds. The same questions for each party. Links to the original submissions.

Approved for publication by Jennifer Love · Sources checked 24 October 2026 · AI-assisted English paraphrases; not a verbatim transcript.

What do parties actually propose? Abu Ali Express invited them to put their answers on one page: first on security and territory, then on everyday life and public institutions. This compilation brings the replies located in those two rounds into a common format.

These are proposals attributed in the source posts, not verified achievements or promises endorsed by Torekh. Most summaries below follow Abu Ali’s accompanying précis; the Amcha Yisrael and Yisrael Beiteinu first-round entries also draw on their attached submission images. Follow each original link for the complete Hebrew document and context. Party leaders identify the submissions; they are not necessarily the person who sent or authored them.

Correction that matters: a civic document initially attributed to Hendel–Zelikha was subsequently disavowed. A 23 October notice published on Abu Ali’s channel says it was forged and removed. Its claims are excluded below. We use the replacement published on 24 October. This reports the notice’s account; Torekh has not independently investigated its origin.

Round one: security and territory

The 10 October invitation asked, in paraphrase:

1. How would you defeat Hamas, and what practical approach would you take in Gaza?
2. How would you defeat or disarm Hezbollah, through military action or another approach?
3. Would you expand construction in the West Bank, including E1 and farms, and do you support a Palestinian state?
4. What action would you take toward Iran, including military or economic means aimed at the regime?

The questions reflect the publisher’s framing. Presenting them does not make that framing or any proposed answer Torekh’s position.

Round two: cost of living, education, service and justice

The 21 October invitation asked, in paraphrase:

1. What concrete measures would you take to lower living costs?
2. How would you improve education in Israeli schools?
3. What is your plan for Haredi recruitment, and what recruitment targets would you set?
4. Would you retain or change the justice system? If changing it, which specific changes would you make?

Which replies are still missing from this compilation?

In the channel posts located for this compilation, all eight named parties have a security-round entry. Civic replies were located for five: Yisrael Beiteinu, Religious Zionism, Zehut, Amcha Yisrael and Hendel–Zelikha. Civic-round replies for Beyachad, Blue and White and Otzma Yehudit were not located.

Replies in either round from Likud, Yashar!, the Democrats, Ra’am, the Joint List, Shas and United Torah Judaism were not located in this search. This is a source-coverage statement, not proof that a party did not respond, has no policy or declined an invitation. Other parties are not comprehensively covered. Names are retained as the submissions were labeled; this historical response index is not a current ballot-list register.

How to read an answer

Ask every party the same follow-ups: What would change, who would implement it, what would it cost, by when, and how would progress be measured? In the recruitment round, a service model is not the same as a numerical recruitment target. Where no target is included in this summary, check the original before concluding that the full submission omitted it.

Proposals involving displacement, annexation or military force are described as proposals. Their publication here does not establish legality, feasibility, civilian protections or likely results. Those assessments require separate evidence.

Research and review: We searched Abu Ali Express’s public Telegram archive and website mirrors, followed his initial seven-party roundup, and included the later Hendel–Zelikha security reply and replacement civic reply. Search results can omit or retain deleted material; this is a dated compilation of located posts, not a certified complete archive. No independent performance fact-check or human translation sign-off is claimed. Jennifer Love is Torekh’s interim reviewer and final editor; this article was approved by her for publication on 24 October 2026.

Independent compilation; no affiliation or endorsement by Abu Ali Express or the parties is implied. Original reporting and submissions are credited through their source links. Corrections and additional original replies: sendmegoodthings@gmail.com.
