Yair Lapid is right that there is corruption in the World Zionist Organization – but wrong to walk away. When liberals abandon the field, the far right takes it over. 🔗 From J Street Israel’s Nadav Tamir:

By pulling out of key Zionist institutions, Yair Lapid deprived the liberal camp of a powerful tool for shaping Israel’s future

Yes, the World Zionist Organization definitely needs more transparency and oversight; and that’s part of what we spent last week doing in J'lem. But Yair Lapid's announcement that Yesh Atid is leaving the WZO is little more than performative politics, explains our ED, R' @mhughesrob.bsky.social.
