National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir:
“Good week, Mr. Prime Minister,
I was stunned by reports that Smotrich and Feiglin, with you acting as mediator, were conducting advanced negotiations on a merger, and that you and Smotrich issued a staged call for unity with me solely in order to ‘put pressure on Feiglin’ and lower his demands.
It’s one thing to boycott events I attend and be embarrassed to be photographed with me, but was the impassioned call for unity also nothing more than a cynical ploy?!
Mr. Prime Minister, it’s worth reminding you: my name is Itamar Ben-Gvir, not Benny Gantz.”
