Bennett's comments about sitting with Netanyahu in next gov't were 'unsuccesful irony,' Lapid says

Lapid then explained how Netanyahu repeatedly manages to overshadow opposition leaders and dominate the media agenda, this time over warnings of a possible war with Iran.

Opposition leader Yair Lapid clarified that his party's leader Naftali Bennett's comments about potentially sitting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the next government, under certain conditions, were an unsuccessful attempt at irony. Lapid dismissed the mixed reactions within the political camp seeking to replace Netanyahu after Bennett's remarks. He firmly stated that they will not sit with Netanyahu under any circumstances.
