  • Yair Golan predicts Prime Minister Netanyahu is panicked about losing power and facing a state inquiry.
  • Golan plans to change Knesset leadership and cancel laws he deems harmful to state institutions.
  • The Democratic Party leader calls for a state commission to investigate the October 7th events, including Netanyahu's role.
  • Golan believes opposition parties have enough Knesset mandates to form an alternative coalition.
  • He previously urged support from Arab parties to form a 'government of change'.

Yair Golan, leader of the Democratic Party, stated that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is fearful of losing power and facing consequences from a state commission of inquiry. Golan asserted that Netanyahu is "panicked about losing power. He is trembling in anticipation of the moment when we change the Knesset chairman, cancel laws aimed at overthrowing the government, and establish a state commission that will conduct a full investigation, including into himself."

Golan advocates for replacing the Knesset leadership, abandoning legislative initiatives he believes weaken state institutions, and forming a state commission to thoroughly investigate the October 7th tragedy. He insists this inquiry must include Netanyahu's own actions, reflecting the opposition leader's stance on the future government and its accountability.

Previously, Golan urged Gadi Eisenkot's bloc to secure support from Arab parties to form a "government of change." He believes that forces opposing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu possess sufficient mandates in the Knesset to form an alternative coalition.

In a separate context, Golan clarified remarks about removing religion from public spaces, explaining on social media that he intended to counter religious coercion, not ban religion itself.
