Eisenkot called on Netanyahu to avoid unnecessary military action.
Chairman of the Israel Defense Forces! The party's Gadi Eisenkot wrote to Netanyahu:
"In perhaps the most sensitive political situation the country has ever known, you must act responsibly and with extreme caution in making security and national decisions."
"You serve as prime minister of a transitional government that no longer enjoys the trust of the Knesset. Show restraint and avoid dangerous marches that may wait until the new government is sworn in."
"Using the security forces without a direct and immediate threat that cannot be delayed could have devastating consequences for Israeli democracy and trust in government institutions."
