Member of Knesset Ram Ben Barak stated that Israel is facing an "existential threat" due to its international standing and internal situation. Speaking at the President's Residence as part of the coalition-building consultations, Ben Barak's faction, "Bayehad," recommended Gadi Eisenkot, chairman of the "Yesh!" party, to form the next government.
Ben Barak emphasized the urgency of forming a government quickly, warning that the country is deteriorating. He criticized the current incitement against entire segments of the population and expressed concern over the government's handling of the situation in Judea and Samaria. "When I see what the government is doing with what is happening in Judea and Samaria, it has military, police, and Shin Bet power, and they are unable to stop 400 people who are causing us indescribable damage," he said.
He further elaborated that Israel's global standing is precarious, contributing to this existential danger. The lawmaker stressed that the government's inability to control a small group causing significant harm highlights a critical weakness.
