Naftali Bennett: Netanyahu Wants Leftist Government
by News Editor
Ynet — Though the meeting of the Left-Center bloc, called with the intent to form a united front ahead of the nearing elections, did not yield any significant results, Habayit Hayehudi Chairman Naftali Bennett stated Monday that “It seems that the prime minister’s plan is, I’m afraid, to form a leftwing government – Likud, Tzipi Livni, Amram Mitzna and Amir Peretz.”
Bennett criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for his ties with the left, adding that “Last time a national government was elected, a moment after the elections (Netanyahu) welcomed Barak in. such a government will again start a futile diplomatic move instead of dealing with the real issues.”‘
