- Right After Party Endorses 3rd Temple, Polls Show them Entering Knesset After Elections
by … Head of the Otzmah Yehudit (Jewish Power) party, Itamar Ben-Gvir and his Otzma Yehudit party has come out in support of building the third Temple in an exclusive interview with Breaking Israel News on Thursday.
–
On the same day that Ben-Gvir expressed support for building the third Temple, polls showed him passing the minimum threshold of four seats and entering the upcoming Knesset following elections on September 17.
–
The Otzmah Yehudit party is considered to be the most right wing party in the current elections and was the center of much controversy after two of their candidates, Baruch Marzel and Bentzi Gopstein were disqualified from running by the Supreme Court. But now that Moshe Feiglin and his Zehut (identity) party dropped out of the race, Otzma Yehudit is the only party left in the elections who publicly supports building the Third Temple.
–
Zehut dropping out has helped Ben Gvir’s party capitalize on their voters and likely contributed to their dramatic climb in the polls.
