The outgoing Peace Now Director Avi Buskila announced he will be running the Meretz primaries to content for the party's leadership.
In a message posted on his Facebook account, Buskila wrote, "Meretz is an amazing party, but for the longest time we've conducted ourselves like a rusty ship that has not been on water in ages."
"You have to not only respond to reality, but shape it," Buskila said.
Buskila announced his resignation earlier Sunday.
