I would like to see such a debate... actually I would like to see any real debate between political opponents. There is no culture of electoral debates here, and when they have them they are not real debates... but I would like to see this. I hope Lapid accepts the challenge.

That being said, I am not sure why Deri is doing this. Deri's voters, generally, are not debating between Shas and Kachol Lavan. Maybe he wants the stage to get his anti-secular pro-Jewish message across and the best way to do that is opposing Lapid.

The last line he closes with is cute and funny. The truth is, nobody in Shas can do anything without Deri's permission either..
