Menashe Amir, an expert on Middle East affairs, said that Eisenkot needs the support of Arab parties to establish an Israeli government, but the opposition of the coalition parties to cooperation with them made it difficult to obtain a majority of 61 seats. Amir added that Netanyahu hopes that Eisenkot will fail in forming the cabinet so that he will get the opportunity to form the government. He also said that Israel cannot start a new war against the Islamic Republic without the support of the United States, and in the current situation he underestimates the possibility of such an attack.
