According to David Halffinger, a writer in the New York Times, he said the following: Exit polls point to a record number of mainly Arab parties in Israel, which are as eager to send Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu into retirement as the Jewish opposition parties. But the opposition leaders set conditions for entering a new government that they claim the Arab parties did not meet - including declaring Hamas a terrorist organization. This means that the Gadi Eisenkot bloc rejects partners who can provide a clear path to a governing majority instead of Mr. Netanyahu. We will have to see what the Arab parties will do in this matter.
