The young Israelis that spearheaded last year's social protests throughout the country are pondering going into politics, after the government announced to move the elections ahead, local newspaper reported Thursday.

Although most of the young leaders prefer to remain outside the political world, some of them are beginning to think that joining a political party may be the best way to make changes, Ha'aretz daily said.

Itzik Shmuli, chairman of Israeli Student Union and one of the first to initiate the protests, is considering a few offers from different political parties, but has not yet reached a decision, according to the report.

"It's a challenge to link social protest to the ballot box," the young man told the newspaper.

Others are not so shy to openly talk about their political aspirations, like Yonatan Levy, who played a key role in organizing last summer's protests.

"The last year and a half has proven to us that if we are not in the political sphere, it doesn't really matter how many people we will get to come out to the streets," Levy told The Jerusalem Post.

However, other main organizers seem allergic to politics, like Daphni Leef, who made hundreds of thousands of people take to the streets after she protested her landlord's eviction and put a tent in the street.

"Me running into politics? Never. I never wanted to enter that game. I'm a filmmaker by profession. I'm working for the good of this country and so that everyone can have a better life in the near future. I'm giving myself seven more years of doing activism, not more, and then I can continue with my career," Leef told Xinhua two months ago.

Now, after being courted by different political parties, Leef remains sure that her life is not linked to politics.

There is no doubt that these young leaders would make any political party gain certain credibility among the younger voters, but most of them still remain unconvinced to join the political arena.

"Political parties are also a tool for political change," social protest leader Stav Shaffir told Ha'aretz, "The question is where I can have the greatest impact to achieve the goals (for which) I've been fighting for a long time."

All of the key players of last year's social protests have been wooed by parties from across Israel's political spectrum, but it still remains unclear whether they will finally succumb to the game of politics.
