Moshe Kahlon, Israeli Minister of Communications and Social Affairs, to leave politics, 15th October 2012

The popular Minister Moshe Kahlon gave a surprise announcement on Sunday that he would not seek another term in office. Moshe, who has taken part in Forward Thinking initiatives for 7 years, said that he is simply following through on a timetable set three years ago, adding that he told Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in advance that he would not seek another term in office. We have  valued Moshe's contributions to our dialogue greatly, and we hope to keep him as an important part of the process. For more information, click here.
