  • Even hearing it, it’s hard to believe: Lieberman intends to hand Judea and Samaria over to Jordan. This must not be allowed!

  • Yair Golan revealed this evening that he and Eisenkot will form a left-wing government with the Arab parties. That’s what this election is about: either the right—or Palestine. Only a vote for Likud will prevent Eisenkot, Golan, Lieberman, Bennett and the Arab parties from forming a left-Arab government.

    יאיר גולן חושף הערב שהוא ואיזנקוט יקימו ממשלת שמאל עם המפלגות הערביות. על זה הבחירות: זה או ימין - או פלסטין. רק הצבעה לליכוד תמנע הקמת ממשלת שמאל-ערבים של איזנקוט, גולן, ליברמן, בנט והמפלגות הערביות.

Pages that ran the ads

Each link opens the page's political ads in the Meta Ad Library.

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in shekels, from 1 October 2025. Spend is the sum of Meta's range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as "1M+", so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend.
