Otzma Yehudit Condemns Likud Slogan, Accuses Netanyahu of Planning Government with Gadi Eizenkot

Otzma Yehudit has sharply criticized the Likud party's new slogan "Broad National Government," claiming it reveals Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's intention to form a government with former IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eizenkot. The party issued a statement saying, "The Likud slogan is very troubling and reflects the Prime Minister's plan to establish a government with Eizenkot." Otzma Yehudit warned that a unity government including Eizenkot would effectively end judicial reform efforts and represent a complete victory for left-wing figures Gali Baharav-Miara and Yitzhak Amit.

The party also attacked both Eizenkot and Benny Gantz, labeling them "full leftists." They accused the two of sabotaging key military operations during their time in government, including the capture of the Philadelphi corridor, Rafah, the security zone in Lebanon, the elimination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, and the "Bipers" operation. Otzma Yehudit further claimed that Eizenkot and Gantz demanded total surrender to Hamas's demands.
