election debate 2015 (video)

the debate was kind of pointless, as I expected it to be. Not because Netanyahu, Herzog and Livni weren't there, but because the format was not good. It wasn't productive for any real debate.

For a real debate, I would have liked to see the same question presented to each party head and to hear how his/her party would deal with that issue. Then we could get the differences clear.

Pitting one against one is good for an interview, but not good for the debate this was supposed to be. I mean, are Bennet and Galon really fighting over the same potential voters? Lieberman and Aida?Do we really have to have a debate include whether Maran is happy with Yishai or Deri?

That being said, there were good moments..

At one point Yonit Levi mentions that only Herzog and Netanyahu didn't agree to come.. that is not entirely true - the head of UTJ, Yaakov Litman also did not agree to participate.




Overall I think Bennet did well, I think Lieberman did well despite his monotonous tone, Uman Aida did well... Kahlon was ok. The rest could have skipped the debate entirely.
