Bereaved father Hagai Loiber spoke on Wednesday to 103FM radio, addressing the ongoing election results that indicate neither Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's bloc nor the "change bloc" can form a government. Loiber revealed that he had previously pleaded with Gadi Eisenkot not to form a government with Arab parties.
Speaking with a choked voice, Loiber recounted a meeting with Eisenkot at the start of the current election campaign. "I sat with Gadi Eisenkot in my office, at the beginning of this election campaign, and I begged him and told him, 'Gadi, you can save the people of Israel, don't even think about going with the Arabs. These are people who rejoiced that your son and my son were killed,'" Loiber stated. He emphasized their shared grief, saying, "We sat there, both of us, and cried. You cannot sit with people who rejoiced over a war waged against us. We sat there, both of us, and cried, we swore to uphold their will. How can people say Eisenkot will do this or that trick and form a government with them?"
Loiber had initially planned to vote for Benny Gantz, supporting his stance on forming a Zionist unity government and dismantling bloc politics. Following Loiber's withdrawal from his political plans, he hinted at voting for Winter.
