Dvir Kriv, a former Shin Bet officer with 23 years of service, has joined the Israel Beitenu party led by Avigdor Lieberman. Kriv previously transitioned to a career in education after his time in the security service. His decision signals support for Lieberman’s candidacy for Prime Minister. This move represents a notable alignment between a veteran of Israel’s security establishment and a prominent political figure. Kriv’s expertise and background may bolster Israel Beitenu’s platform, particularly concerning national security. The shift could also indicate a broader trend within the security community regarding political preferences. Lieberman welcomed Kriv’s addition to the party, highlighting his professional experience.
