The source told Walla that since the elections, they have been hearing discussions and engaging with individuals in the "change bloc" (referring to opposition parties), indicating they understood the direction events were heading.
According to the source, there is an intention to proceed with a move to form a government with the opposition. "If they give us a conscription law, we will go with them. Absolutely.
