MK-designate Elissaf Peretz from the Yashar party called for forming a 'Zionist government' and prioritizing reservists. In a Facebook post ahead of his entry into the Knesset next week, he wrote about his brigade comrades who are serving in reserves in Lebanon: 'In another reality, I should be in Lebanon now.' The remarks came amid reports of the possibility of forming a government headed by Gadi Eisenkot in partnership with the Haredi parties, with a compromise on the conscription issue. Peretz did not explicitly mention the Haredi parties or the coalition negotiations. The article presents his call as opposition to a partnership with Haredim or Arabs, even though the remarks themselves are not explicit.
