  "summary": "Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has responded to criticism from Ofer Winter, chairman of the People of Israel party. Winter had expressed dissatisfaction with Netanyahu's leadership, stating that his support for the prime minister was not unconditional. In an interview with Channel 12's Meet the Press, Winter said that if Netanyahu did not meet his party's demands, he would tell him to \"kiss my a**\".\n\nWinter's demands included a decisive military outcome in Gaza, emigration from Gaza, and a law requiring haredi citizens to draft into the IDF. He also wanted a right-wing coalition that did not rely on United Torah Judaism's Yitzhak Goldknopf for its 61st Knesset seat. According to Arutz Sheva - Israel National News, Netanyahu has now fired back at Winter, comparing him to former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett.\n\nNetanyahu described Winter as \"Bennett 2.0\", implying that Winter's views and leadership style are similar to those of Bennett. The exchange highlights tensions within Israel's right-wing politics, with Winter criticizing Netanyahu's leadership and Netanyahu responding with a personal attack.",
