When will Eisenkot join the Bennett-Lapid alliance?

Mabzaken 12 Avigdor Lieberman: "The moment I announce that I support Eisenkot, at that moment I will lose two seats. If Bennett announces that he supports Eisenkot, he will lose four seats. This announcement will be a small gain for Gad and a big loss for the bloc. Right now, every party must maximize its electorate." He said these words on 103FM

I understand that the appearance on "Meet" put some pressure on the "Yashrim." We've only just begun, get used to it. Facts are important in general and before elections in particular: 1. Eisenkot entered the previous Knesset without a party in personal armor as number 3. The fact that I acted on his behalf did not prevent "Yashrim" from acting together with Gantz to push me out of the war cabinet, contrary to a signed agreement. In any case, today it is clear that the turning point in the war in all sectors was, without a doubt, after he abandoned the war cabinet. 2. Contrary to the "Yashrim" lies, my entry into the government in September 2024 did not involve a political agreement. The political agreement with the Likud was signed six months later, in March 2025. 3. Eisenkot has never held any ministerial position. He is also devoid of any political experience. His parliamentary and ministerial achievements in the past term are close to zero. Many people testify to my successes as Foreign Minister, as in each of my ministerial positions. 4. As mentioned, all the significant moves in the war happened and were made possible only after Eisenkot abandoned the war cabinet, in which he sat in my place. This includes the two deals to return the hostages in January and October 2025, all the significant moves against Hezbollah (the beepers, the radios, the elimination of the missile depots, the elimination of Nasrallah, the seizure of the security zone), the elimination of Sinwar, the seizure of the buffer zone in Syria, and the historic moves against Iran: "With the Dog" and "The Roar of the Harrier." His "advice" during the time Cohen was in the war cabinet to end the war prematurely and on bad terms for Israel revealed weakness and feeble-mindedness. His pretensions are inversely proportional to his abilities, and things are about to become clearer.

Bennett vs. Eisenkot: "The moment you start with a 30% exemption, you know how it will end"

Bennett chooses to sting Eisenkot again: "A 30% exemption from conscription will end in nothing - just another round at the expense of the naive politician on duty." And added: "We will harness the security forces against Qatar; we will bring Egypt into Gaza instead of Turkey and Qatar; we will attack Iran in response to Hezbollah's firing."

Bennett vs. Eisenkot: There will be no compromises on the draft

Together chairman Naftali Bennett was asked this evening by the Marciano Foundation whether Lapid claimed to him that he was going to close with Eisenkot on the eve of their unification, even though there was no offer at all. I didn't hear a denial here.

Eisenkot goes on the offensive and takes off his gloves against his opponents, the Bennett bloc and the Golan.

Bennett in an interview with Lior Keinan tonight: Firmly refuses to commit that he will not demand the premiership if he brings in fewer seats than Eisenkot And explains why he is better than Eisenkot: "A lot of political experience is needed here"

Despite the polls leaning in favor of Gadi Eisenkot, Beyahat Chairman Naftali Bennett refuses to say that he will recommend his friend to the Change Bloc, Eisenkot, even if he wins the elections. In a special interview with @KerenMarc that will air tomorrow, Saturday, on "Weekend News" - Bennett addresses the decline in the polls, the union with Lapid and the possibility of another war with Iran | Tomorrow at 8:00 PM on "Weekend News"

Yair Lapid in an interview broadcast tonight on the "Friday" edition: "It is not obvious that Eisenkot is the bloc's candidate for prime minister." And in light of the decline in the polls, he says that the number of mandates should not determine - "Bennett is the most suitable"

Eisenkot opposed the attack on Iran. Abandoned a government during wartime before all the achievements we brought. He has no government without Yair Golan and the Arab parties. Eisenkot is leftist.

New details on the Tropper and Handel alliance - aiming for a broad Zionist government but will also complement Eisenkot or Bennett if there is no choice, provided the government does not include Arab parties; Tropper first but joint leadership, Rich-Rich on the list, and understanding to "act responsibly" if business does not pick up

Hili Tropper made it clear to Handel during the negotiations: If the connection does not achieve the desired effect - the next step is a connection to Eisenkot | First publication by @glick_sh >>>

Winter: I have a huge disagreement with Eisenkot

Eisenkot responds: Everything he ever promised blew up in our faces

Does Yesh Atid's union with Bennett help or hurt the bloc? Lapid to @efitriger: "This is not a mathematical question, you are missing the magnitude of the event. There will be many more votes than you think. There will be a turnaround here like in 1977, Likud had 43 seats then - if Eisenkot joins, these are approximately the numbers we will have"

Yashar Party Chairman Gadi Eisenkot was asked at a closed conference last night about the importance of "determining the facts and decisions in advance" regarding the issue of mergers in the bloc ahead of the elections. Eisenkot replied: "I am a great believer in the obligation to make mergers, so that there will be a party that will be significantly above the Likud. The Likud today has 25-26 seats. The challenge is to make a merger that will bring 35 and 40 seats. I am committed to this and will do everything to make it happen." @DvirGivre | @yaircherki

Eisenkot: "My union with Bennett and Lapid - the optimal form for the elections"

Eisenkot: "Our party will be half men, half women, and one-third young people"
