Odds against Netanyahu as Arab parties back Eisenkot as Israel PM; Shin Bet continues voter fraud probe
As the deliberations continue, Herzog has said that he will task a leader to form the next government by Sunday with the odds currently in Eisenkot's favour.
Israel finds itself at a critical crossroads, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly attempting to stage a coup in an effort to seize power by force, according to Democrats party leader Yair Golan. In a dramatic statement on X/Twitter, Golan accused the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) of being controlled by the Netanyahu family, stating that the core of Israel's security has fallen into the hands of those serving Netanyahu instead of the state.
The crisis with the United States appears to be deepening, as military aid funds are being cut and tensions with the Democratic Party continue to escalate. Golan emphasized that this situation poses a serious threat to Israel's security and warned against engaging in political games. Despite the challenges, Golan highlighted ongoing efforts to capitalize on the election results and form a new government.
He acknowledged the difficulties but expressed determination to fulfill the promise of removing Netanyahu and safeguarding Israel's democracy and security. Golan firmly stated that they have a majority, an opportunity, and a historic responsibility to seize this moment.
