Sarah Silverman Trying To Influence Israeli Election
After throwing her support behind Barack Obama in the US Presidential Elections, “comedienne” Sarah Silverman (and I use the word loosely*) has used Twitter to try and influence the upcoming Israeli elections.
Both Meretz and the Green Movement are left-wing parties. Zehava Galon, who responded to Silverman’s Tweet above, is the Chairwoman of Meretz, and had this to say:
“I was really excited,” Galon told Israeli website Mako, “the same day Obama is elected Silverman thought that Meretz is the sane and liberal alternative and that made me really happy.” Mako also reports that Silverman’s sister Susan, who is a reform rabbi who lives in Jerusalem, is friends with Galon, although Galon has never met Sarah. “She’s amazing,” Galon added, “she is an opinion leader and I think it’s cool.”
Silverman has since deleted her Tweet, which begs the question: why? She hardly seems to care what others think.
For the record, her Twitter profile still mentions her location as “Palestinian Territories.”

When she was in Israel she showed support for Israel against the Palestinian terrorists.
I think someone influenced her to tweet it and then, maybe her father, explained to her what Meretz is, so she deleted it.
See, I told you Israeli politics is confusing to us Americans. Is there a resource anyone could recommend to me and my fellow Americans so we can tell one Israeli party from another and who we should be rooting for and against?
I predict that her influence will be nil.
