Editorial illustration generated by baba News, not a photograph of the event.

Former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett stated he would not sit in a government with Benjamin Netanyahu, following controversy over the possibility of Netanyahu serving as a minister. In an interview with 103FM, Bennett declared, "I already removed Netanyahu from the Prime Minister's office and I know how to do it again." He also sharply criticized Yonatan Uriach and pledged to take action against Qatar.

Bennett emphasized his forward-looking approach, stating, "I am facing forward. If we do not fully implement the servants' revolution, which takes 30 billion shekels from tax evaders and transfers it to servants, we have no country here." He also expressed concern about safety protocols for trips in dangerous areas, questioning the approval process for routes in areas known to be littered with unexploded ordnance and demanding an immediate review to ensure children's safety.

Addressing the upcoming elections, Bennett identified a specific demographic he believes will be decisive. "I am not a commentator, I shape reality," he asserted. "What is happening on the ground now, especially with Likud-leaning cities, will be the surprise of the elections." He claimed to have shifted young voters from Itamar Ben-Gvir to his side, stating they understood that "this is a disastrous government and they do not intend to be lifelong slaves and pay 70% income tax for life to fund evasion."
