A senior figure within the "change bloc" coalition has dismissed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's call for a unity government discussion with "Yisrael Beiteinu" chairman Gadi Eisenkot as another "spin." The source told Ynet that Netanyahu understands Eisenkot is determined to form a government led by himself. "This is more Netanyahu nonsense. He's already in the blame game," the senior official stated, suggesting the Prime Minister is deflecting responsibility.
The "change bloc" refers to the coalition of parties that opposed Netanyahu's government. The statement implies that Netanyahu's proposal is not a genuine attempt at compromise but rather a tactic to shift blame for potential political deadlock onto his opponents. The opposition views Netanyahu's move as a sign he is already preparing for a scenario where he can accuse others of preventing a resolution.
