The shift in the Druze community: the party they are expected to support in the elections

Channel 14 commentator on Arab affairs, Dr. Edi Cohen, claims that following the events in Syria and Israeli aid to the Druze, there has been a change in the attitudes of some members of the Druze community towards Prime Minister Netanyahu, and that "most Druze do not want a new government, they want Netanyahu."

Channel 14 commentator on Arab affairs, Dr. Edi Cohen, claims that there has been a shift in the attitudes of some members of the Druze community towards Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, against the backdrop of events in Syria and Israeli aid to the Druze there. In an interview with Ido Tauber, Cohen said that the threat to the lives of hundreds of thousands of Druze in Syria and Israeli steps to protect them led to gratitude towards Netanyahu. According to him, even those who were previously harmed by the Nation-State Law are now choosing to set aside the dispute. Cohen quoted a Druze activist named Walid who said that "the only person who stood up for the protection of the Druze is the Prime Minister himself, Mr. Benjamin Netanyahu." At the end of the interview, Cohen claimed that "most Druze do not want a new government, they want Netanyahu. The Nation-State Law has already been forgotten."
