Stav shafir, a 29 years old Knesset member won the second place in the primaries of the Labor party. The moment the results were published, many right wing voters started to criticize Shafir’s agenda on Facebook and described her as Post-Zionistic because of her refusal to sing the Israeli anthem in the social protest that she led in the summer of 2011. Her claim was that the Tikva song does not represent the Arabs minority and they are a crucial part of the protest. Since Shafir was elected, she never talked about that issue. All she did, very successfully is to reveal the corruption and injustice that allows Nisan Sulimyanski, the head of the Finance Committee and a Knesset Member from the “Jewish House”, transfer without any transparent hundreds of millions of Shekels to fund the settlements. Time after time, this couple where arguing loudly and both received extensive exposure on the news. There is no doubt that shafir justified her red hair that symbolizes hot-tempered person.  I think that she is doing a great job.
