Netanyahu says minority government would be a ‘slap in the face’ to IDF soldiers
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleNetanyahu takes aim at Gantz, saying the prospect of a minority government that is propped up by the Arab-majority Joint List would be a “slap in the face of IDF soldiers that we sent to battle together.”
Gantz, who was IDF chief of staff during the 2014 Gaza war, has not signaled willingness to establish such a government; nor has he denied reports that the option is on the table.
The prime minister, addressing a conference organized by the right-wing Makor Rishon newspaper, also says that such a government would be “a threat to Israel’s security.”
