Who they are
Harush Giti grew up in Jerusalem in a traditional Moroccan household, half of it Haredi by her own account. She commanded a company at the Havat HaShomer training base and took a master's in public policy at the Hebrew University. She ran the Acharai! movement as its first woman chief executive, then Pnima, and from 2020 headed the Defense Ministry's service outline directorate under Benny Gantz.
Positions and record
Draft: A National Service Law covering every community, enforced.
Integration: Enlistment must lead into employment and education, not stop at the base gate.
Service: Universal obligations as the price of the social contract.
Kodkod: Personally built the Kodkod track at the Defense Ministry, which places elite Haredi men aged 21 to 26 into Unit 8200 technology roles while they keep living at home and dressing Haredi rather than wearing uniform; the program has grown from 86 to 200 places per intake.
Autonomy: Says the goal goes beyond a conscription law: in a Kol Hai radio interview she called for dismantling Haredi communal autonomy across 'all areas of Haredi life,' arguing it weakens the state, and for reaching the Haredi public directly rather than through rabbinic leadership.
Where they stand
Holds the party line on every issue.
Judea & Samariaparty lineNo Palestinian state, which Eisenkot has never supported, but a pragmatic approach whose aim is to keep a Jewish majority and stop Israel becoming a binational state.
Two states / withdrawalSovereignty / annexation
Gaza & Securityparty lineA new security doctrine, and an alternative government in Gaza on Israel's terms. Eisenkot pressed for the Rafah operation as leverage for a hostage deal.
Deal & disengagementFull military control
Haredi Enlistmentparty lineEvery citizen is called up, to the army first and to civilian service otherwise, and those who dodge it face prosecution and civil sanctions. Each year no more than 3% of those due to enlist can be exempted, and everyone else serves. The party does not say who would qualify.
Universal draftPreserve exemptions
Judiciaryparty lineA judiciary that is strong, independent and accountable, a Knesset that is sovereign, and a Basic Law: Legislation strengthening the Knesset's own authority.
Court can strike lawsKnesset can override
Economyparty lineWork should pay more than a benefit, with priority always going to those who serve and work. Break up the concentration groups and open the market to parallel imports.
Social spendingFree market
Educationparty lineCore studies are the condition for full public funding, with a national council setting the core, while budget and authority devolve to town halls and to heads.
State runs the schoolsParents and communities
Religion & Stateparty lineCivil union institutionalised in Israel, Shabbat in the public space left to each locality, and women seated on religious councils and on the assemblies that elect rabbis.
Civil / pluralistReligious authority
Nation & Citizenshipparty lineA solid Jewish majority for generations, with equal rights, duties and opportunities for every Israeli and minority rights named explicitly, in a state that stays Jewish and democratic in the spirit of the Declaration of Independence.
Equal citizenshipJewish national state
