Minister Amichai Chikli sharply criticized Gadi Eisenkot, chairman of the National Unity Party, on Wednesday evening, accusing him of continuing the political path of former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and collaborating with elements he claims oppose right-wing values. Chikli posted on X (formerly Twitter) that Eisenkot's actions, including calls for disobedience and constitutional crises, echo Bennett's post-election stance. The minister also attacked Eisenkot's political negotiations, specifically criticizing cooperation with Arab party representatives in the Knesset. Chikli linked these appointments to the Islamic Movement to his criticism of Eisenkot, stating that the "mask of the right-wing dealmaker has been removed, and we are left with a Moroccan Ehud Barak." These remarks come amid ongoing efforts by the "Change bloc" to form a new government, with public exchanges between political factions continuing.
