What happened

  • 02The article says he used similar claims before the 2021 election.
  • 03It cites a 2021 quote comparing Netanyahu to the Capitol riot.
  • 04The commentary says Netanyahu has previously lost elections and conceded power.
  • 05It suggests Liberman is repeating the claims because polls favor Gadi Eisenkot.
