Political career

Azulai was sixteenth on the Shas list for the 2015 Knesset elections,[1] but failed to become a Knesset member when Shas won seven seats.

In March 2018, he entered the Knesset as a replacement for his father, Minister of Religious Services David Azulai,[2] who had resigned from the Knesset under the Norwegian Law.[3]

After a minor earthquake occurred in the Haifa June 2018, Azulai claimed that the earthquake came as a result of Reform and Conservative Jews efforts to build a pluralistic prayer area at the Western Wall, including a new area for women. Azulai further stated that Jews who supported such efforts were not actual Jews.[4]

gollark: I mean, I don't know much about ARM vs x86, yes, but calling it "garbage" seems at least very hyperbolic to me.
gollark: Please excuse me if I am not convinced by an argument which is basically just one assertion.
gollark: In what way?
gollark: Why not learn ARM assembly instead?
gollark: And then... writing a newline, and then exiting.
