Who Is Amnon Lipkin-Shahak? Lipkin-Shahak, age 57, is a highly decorated war hero who began his military service in the elite paratroop brigade and was appointed army chief of staff in 1995, succeeding Ehud Barak (currently leader of the Labor Party). Shahak is seen as a moderate who can pull enough votes from the right of center and left of center to wean a coalition government away from having to cave in to the extreme right.
