  • Journalist Ben Caspit highlighted Benjamin Netanyahu's outdated campaign slogan on social media.
  • Netanyahu's profile picture on X was changed within five minutes of Caspit's post.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has been calling for political unity, was criticized by journalist Ben Caspit for retaining an old campaign slogan in his social media profile picture. Caspit noticed that Netanyahu's X (formerly Twitter) profile still featured the slogan "Right or Palestine," a prominent phrase from the Likud party's campaign, despite the prime minister's recent conciliatory messages to political rivals. The slogan was notably used by Netanyahu to warn against a potential government led by Gadi Eisenkot with the support of Arab parties. Following Caspit's public observation on X, the profile picture was reportedly changed within five minutes. Caspit shared screenshots as proof, humorously noting his influence on the prime minister. The update also extended to Netanyahu's Facebook profile, though it remains unclear if these changes were a direct response to Caspit's post or part of a planned social media update.
