Mishal stated that Rabbi Lando's decision not to recommend Netanyahu for prime minister is key to this possibility. The ultra-Orthodox parties' participation in a coalition depends on Rabbi Lando's directive.

Israeli journalist and TV presenter Nissim Mishal believes that Gadi Eisenkot has the potential to form a new government, though it will require significant compromises, particularly regarding the ultra-Orthodox conscription law. Mishal shared his assessment on Sunday morning during an appearance on radio station 103fm, stating that Eisenkot could assemble a coalition despite complex political conditions.

"I predict that Eisenkot will succeed in forming a government, although he will have to make painful compromises on the conscription law," Mishal said. He emphasized that the participation of ultra-Orthodox parties in any future coalition hinges on the decision of one individual, Rabbi Lando.

Mishal explained that Rabbi Lando was instrumental in instructing parties not to recommend Netanyahu for prime minister, a move that Mishal believes opens the door for a coalition led by Eisenkot. "The entry of the ultra-Orthodox into the coalition depends solely on one person, Rabbi Lando. He is the one who ordered not to recommend Netanyahu. He leaves open the possibility of forming a coalition with Eisenkot," Mishal asserted.
