Eitan Cabel, a prominent voice in the center-left camp on the issue of ultra-Orthodox enlistment and equality of burden, was interviewed this week on the program 'Meeting of Extremes' and was asked to explain the gap between his messages during the election campaign and his current position. Cabel said that the elections were first and foremost 'about Bibi' and that their goal was 'to end Netanyahu's tenure.' According to him, 'forming a government at any cost' – even at the cost of breaking a promise to reserve soldiers. He added that he wants Gadi Eisenkot to be prime minister. When asked about cooperation with Arab or ultra-Orthodox parties, he refused to answer about a personal choice and said that any party willing to accept the basic principles of the new government would be accepted.
