  • Now is the moment when we rely on you. We are the public that saved Israel. Now we will save it from within the government too. One Emet ballot and another Emet ballot. A downpour of truth. Everyone who went out into the streets must see this video. Every man and woman who held a flag. Everyone who cares about the State of Israel. It’s up to us. It’s in our power. Now to the ballot boxes, and from there to the government.

    עכשיו הגיע הרגע שבו אנחנו סומכים עליכם. אנחנו הציבור שהציל את ישראל. עכשיו נציל אותה גם מתוך הממשלה. פתק אמת ועוד פתק אמת. גשם של אמת. את הסרטון הזה כל אחד שיצא לרחוב חייב לראות. כל איש ואישה שהחזיקו דגל. שמדינת ישראל יקרה להם. זה עלינו. זה בכוחנו. עכשיו לקלפיות, ומשם לממשלה.

  • We are democracy’s fighters. In the next government, we will not settle for replacing Netanyahu. We will rebuild democratic Israel: no defendants in government, no Kohelet, and no coup laws. We will restore Israel to itself—free, equal and democratic. We will not be deterred. We will not buckle. We will not stop. Without the Democrats, there will be no democracy.

    אנחנו לוחמי הדמוקרטיה. בממשלה הבאה לא נסתפק בהחלפת נתניהו. נבנה מחדש את ישראל הדמוקרטית: בלי נאשמים בממשלה, בלי קהלת ובלי חוקי הפיכה. נחזיר את ישראל לעצמה - חופשית, שוויונית ודמוקרטית. לא נירתע. לא נתקפל. לא נעצור. בלי הדמוקרטים לא תהיה דמוקרטיה.

  • Oz Davidian is the real hero. It makes me very sad that there are extremist and violent elements exploiting the families' pure pain in order to spread conspiracies and lies.

    עוז דווידיאן הוא הגיבור האמיתי. עצוב לי מאוד שישנם גורמים קיצוניים ואלימים שמנצלים את כאבם הטהור של המשפחות, על מנת להפיץ קונספירציות ושקרים.

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.
