Attorney Lior Katzeb, a confidant of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, claimed in an interview on 103FM that Gadi Eisenkot did not draft the warning letter he sent to Netanyahu himself, but was required to sign a text passed to him by Ronen Manelis. Katzeb revealed a personal conversation he had with Netanyahu late at night, in which Netanyahu asked, "Why do I need all this?", and Katzeb replied that he is necessary for the people. Katzeb compared Netanyahu to Judah Maccabee and Bar Kokhba, and argued that Netanyahu is driven by a sense of mission and not by personal interests. Katzeb assessed that Eisenkot will not succeed in forming a government, partly due to his support for Arab parties and the two-state solution, and called for the establishment of a broad national unity government between Netanyahu and Eisenkot. The response of the Yashar party to these statements was "no comment".
