What happened

  1. 01Avigdor Lieberman is willing to compromise on Haredi conscription to achieve his goal of removing Benjamin Netanyahu from power.
  2. 02Political commentator Meir Berger believes Lieberman's strategy is driven by the secular bloc's inability to form a majority government independently.
  3. 03Haredi parties' main demand is legislative exemption from conscription for yeshiva students.
  4. 04Potential coalition partners Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid present a significant obstacle to a compromise government.
  5. 05Meir Berger assesses that another election remains the most likely scenario despite Lieberman's apparent flexibility.

Berger suggests this flexibility is a strategic shift driven by the secular bloc's inability to secure an independent majority. However, forming such a coalition faces significant obstacles, particularly from potential partners like Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid, leading Berger to believe another election is the most probable outcome.
