The polarization must end, realistic leadership is required, and the president of Israel can be the catalyst for change. President Isaac Herzog is uniquely positioned to convene an assembly of Israelis to hammer out a new vision for Israel in the Middle East and direct the country to the next level of growth and prosperity. The status quo cannot be maintained, and the current leadership cannot make the required changes to ensure future progress. The polarization has the capacity to destroy the commonwealth yet again, and our future as a country depends on finding a unifying vision for the country and its people.
