Lieberman had claimed that Eisenkot was a "Gantz 2" and was seeking to form a government with Benyamin Netanyahu, Yitzhak Goldknopf, and Aryeh Deri. In his response, Eisenkot did not directly mention Lieberman but urged Israelis who desire change to "ignore the spins" and look towards a "great victory" for Israel.
