Even Strip Dancers in Israel Re
Benny Gantz’s heated reply to Liberman has become the talk of Israel. strippers , usually far removed from politics, are now joining the debate.
Let’s rewind. Liberman had mocked Gantz’s call for opposition unity with Netanyahu, dismissing it as a “pathetic spectacle.”
In his telling, Gantz was desperate, begging for relevance by exploiting painful national issues.
Critics said Liberman struck a low blow, going after the man rather than the message.
Gantz, however, countered with a sharp reminder: he had already helped arrange hostage deals in the past. Liberman? Not so much.
His tone was biting: “Politics isn’t a football match you watch from the stands. It’s about responsibility.”
And just like that, the line went viral.
Strip Dancers’ Poll: Who Do They Trust?
A Tel Aviv lifestyle blog ran a snap poll among strippers and nightlife staff. Results weren’t decisive, but they were telling.
Region Support Gantz Support Liberman Neutral / Neither
Tel Aviv 38% 20% 42%
North 35% 15% 50%
South 28% 22% 50%
Center 30% 25% 45%
The sample was small, yet it revealed something bigger: the debate had spilled from parliament into dance halls, neon-lit clubs, and after-hour bars.
Gantz’s Defense and Liberman’s Silence
In defending himself, Gantz didn’t sugarcoat.
He reminded Israelis that he was willing to take personal and political risks for the nation’s security. “Don’t worry about me — worry about the hostages, worry about the soldiers, worry about the people of Israel,” he said.
Liberman, for once, didn’t come back with equal force. Analysts noted that his reply was vague, talking about the need for a “Zionist government from wall to wall” without specifics.
That vagueness left space for others — including unexpected voices like strip dancers in the Center — to fill the conversation.
