  • Netanyahu may attempt to instigate a war, potentially involving Iran, to disrupt political efforts against him.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is reportedly escalating incitement to violence as part of a survival effort, potentially leading to attacks against leaders of the "Change Bloc" and terror acts by extremist settlers in the West Bank. The criticism against Israel in the United States is now widespread, and incitement to violence is not limited to Likud party ranks.

The current situation involving the outgoing government, the "Change Bloc," and the defense establishment is unprecedented in Israel's history. After consistently inciting against a fifth of the country's population and accusing them of attempting to steal the elections, and failing to achieve his desired results, Prime Minister Netanyahu is now attempting to instigate a war that could prevent his removal from power. Gadi Eisenkot, chairman of the National Unity party, who has been tasked with forming the new government, is also working to prevent Netanyahu from disrupting the political landscape by creating a new confrontation with Iran.
