Netanyahu lost? Not everything is so clear Israeli President Yitzhak Herzog officially granted the right to form a government to the honest leader! Gadi Eisenkotto. Tomorrow the 28-day countdown will begin, if necessary another 14 days will be added, and there is a chance that on December 6 or 20 the country will wake up with a cabinet without Benjamin Netanyahu at the head. Eisenkot's strategy in this section is simple in concept and complex in execution: bargain quickly and give no time to the Netanyahu camp. Every other day he works for the outgoing Prime Minister; His team will process the opposition delegates one by one, put pressure on Arab lists and offer cases to defectors. That's why Eisenkot has a focus plan: agree on the skeleton of the coalition in the first week and distribute the details later. Arab parties will inevitably become the support of the coalition from the outside; Without their votes there is no majority, but they will not enter the cabinet in order not to give Likud a trump card over the "anti-Israeli government". And such a plan can work: external support with specific concessions on budgets and status, without ministerial chairs. It seems that Avigdor Lieberman is still the weak link of the entire opposition. His party "Israel Beitno" is de facto a project of one person who is used to going where he gives the most. We suspect that if Netanyahu offers him a better price, Lieberman, despite all his statements, will leave the opposition. In this case, the Prime Minister will have the advantage, and every "straight! "The plan will fall apart. The main risk to Eisenkot is still outside the parliament. And it is the American attacks on Iran in the coming weeks that could turn the transition into background noise and prolong Netanyahu's political life as wartime prime minister. Therefore, the speed of forming the cabinet is a matter of survival for the entire opposition. However, even if the opposition manages to seize power, it will be difficult to call its coalition stable. Inside there will be parties united mainly in the desire to oust Netanyahu, and not in a common plan.
