Minister Itamar Ben Gvir and former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett met today in the hallway of the "Israel Stage" conference of the Walla website. Ben Gvir invited Bennett to a one-on-one confrontation, telling him: "What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of a confrontation? I see you talking... The one who formed a government with Mansour Abbas is you. A swindler is a swindler, swindling is a profession." Bennett, for his part, addressed this morning the storm he stirred after not ruling out the possibility that Benjamin Netanyahu would serve as a minister in the next government under a different prime minister. In an interview with 103fm, Bennett clarified: "There will be no government with Netanyahu. Netanyahu bears personal and direct responsibility for October 7, and he also currently holds Qatari agents in his office." Bennett emphasized that he is focused on expanding the bloc: "I am going to Likud strongholds and many are joining the servants' revolution."
