Gadi Eisenkot, chairman of the Yisrael Beiteinu party, pledged at a party event attended by thousands that his government would establish a state commission of inquiry on its first day. Within a week of its formation, a national cabinet to combat crime would be established, and legislation for universal conscription would begin. Eisenkot further vowed that within 18 months of taking office, the terrorist organization Hamas would no longer control Gaza.

He warned that anyone believing Israel could survive another four years on its current path was living under a dangerous misconception. Eisenkot asserted that if Israel continues on a course of evasion, failure, negligence, and lies, it will soon cease to be the country Israelis know.
