On May 30th, Israeli “far-right” politician Naftali Bennett announced a coalition with opposition leader Yair Lapid.
They announced that they will form a government excluding Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“It’s my intention to do my utmost in order to form a national unity government along with my friend Yair Lapid, so that, God willing, together we can save the country from a tailspin and return Israel to its course,” said Bennett, a former settler leader and religious nationalist, in a televised address.
They agreed that Bennett would serve first as prime minister until September 2023, after which Lapid would take over until the term ends in November 2025.
Final coalition deals will be signed by the end of May 31st and submitted to the Knesset. The swearing-in ceremony could take place as early as Wednesday, but legally, once Lapid tells President Reuven Rivlin that he could form a government, he has a week to bring the government to a vote of confidence in the Knesset.
Netanyahu accused Bennett of rejecting a right-wing government and instead seeking to become prime minister of a “government of the Left.”
“Naftali Bennett is running to the Left,” Netanyahu said. “This goes against all their principles and promises and everything necessary to guarantee the future of our state.”
Netanyahu noted that during Operation Guardian of the Walls, Bennett and his right-hand-man, member of Israeli parliament Ayelet Shaked, ruled out a government of change. He warned that Bennett and Shaked were endangering the country, the land of Israel and the IDF.
“Either it was a show or they have no principles,” he said.
For Netanyahu who is facing several indictments against him for corruption this could prove detrimental, and he is attempting teeth and claw to hold onto power.
“He’s committed the scam of the century,” Netanyahu said of his former ally and senior aide, accusing him of abandoning rightwing voters. He called the proposed coalition government “a danger to Israel’s security and future”.
Bennett is known for his wish annex most of the occupied West Bank, and is usually much closer ideologically to Netanyahu than Lapid, a former TV news anchor popular with the country’s secular middle class.
“We need a government that will reflect the fact that we don’t hate one another. A government in which left, right and centre will work together to tackle the economic and security challenges we face,” Lapid said.

This stupid corrupt arsehole loser started the genocide in Gaza in the hopes of hanging on to power, but the opposite happened as Hamas kicked Zionist butt and has emerged even stronger. The idiot Nutter Yahoo war criminal now has turned the whole world against the Zionist child killing scum who have become a global pariah like their Apartheid role models. Zionism is dead end and these land thieves need to go back to where they came from. Palestine will be free.
THIS WAR CRIMINAL NATHANYAHU IS LIAR AND MURDERER IS/WAS BACKED BY COMBINED RESOURCES OF Christian west HE CREATED FEAR AND SCAREMONGERING THUS SERVING Christian west ESTABLISHMENT TO PRODUCE AND SELL MORE ARMS REMEMBER zionist entity HAS BEEN CREATED BY Christian west TO ACT AS DESTABILIZER OF MUSLIM NATIONS SO THEY CAN ROB THEM AND DESTROY THEM THIS WAR CRIMINAL HAS SERVED THEM WELL AND HE IS SUBTLY BEING EASED OUT AS Christian west NO LONGER NEED HIM AND THEIR FOCUS HAS MOVED TO A NEW ENEMY CALLED CHINA ANDRUSSIA IT WOULD BE COUNTER PRODUCTIVE TO HIM AS PRIME MINISTER OF zionist entity
This scum ugly Nutter Yahoo started the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza in the mistaken belief that the Zionists will showcase their “power”, but the Iranian missiles in Hamas hands overwhelmed the Zionist Iron Dud and the Jew cowards are too chicken to start a land war that will cause massive casualties and destroy Zionist hovels as it will bring in Hezbollah and other resistance forces. The Zionist cowards have been exposed as total joke and they are finished. Nutter Yahoo will try other desperate stunts now, but not too many options left.
ousting natanhoo is a perfect idea.
if you prefer ww3.
I’ll believe this matters when the nation of Israel learns to not hate others as a default setting.
The ‘nation of israel’ cannot exist without hate.
Without hate, it will not be able to maintain it’s Palestinian concentration camps and Gulags.
Without hate, it will not be able to enforce a siege on Gaza.
Without hate, it will not be able to drop missiles on sleeping children.
Without hate, it is nothing …
As I predicted months ago, on this very site, Nuttyahoo will go the same way as Olmert after being defeated by Hamas.
On to the next loser, probably Gantz …
gants is a reicht winged(war-lgbtq) gimp,personally i don’t vy for the worser evils,not adult enough!
Jesus Christ finally someone other than the DEVIL himself will no longer sit in the Devil’s Chair fucking Netanyahu bitch bloodthirsty killer, baby killer, root in hell, I will never want to see your face again, you made Palestine a piece of shit country. There is no Israel only Israhell, a nasty satanic flag, you only represent Zionism and the devil and the satan himself with your nasty flag and history. Please LET THIS HAPPEN for ONCE the opposition to form a government and exclude and retire the nasty evil Satanist, Netanyahu.
Oh nutz! Bennet turned coat. I like him! He proves to have no principal and moves wherever the wind takes him, so he has potential and is worthy of our attention. Maybe we ought to have a closer look-see?
Meddling in other country’s elections (well I mean the Zionist regime, not exactly a country) is fun and all, but it’s frustrating when it’s our own elections. :'(
You were expecting integrity from Politicians?
Nope. We were hoping for a longer drag, namely a fifth election, giving our next admin enough time.
I wrote about this matter at the time of their elections in disqus, now it’s happening.
So he killed all those children in Gaza and yet failed to remain in power….
Baal was not sated by the meagre blood offering …
Baal wanted Jew blood. Baal has nothing to do with Palestinian blood.
Wow, Netanyahu is desperate to retain PM position – as it is only from there that he can control Cabinet and introduce new specific legislation that protects him both in power and in retirement from ongoing corruption charges. The recent war on Gaza, and the rest of his strong-man act, is a desperate attempt to retain control and an electoral image to the Israeli public. However, seems the emperor may have no clothes after all…
