.. it seems that the established ‘right’ want to depict Eisenkot as on the ‘left’, but from everything I read and hear this is incorrect. @Amit, please can you pass comment accordingly ?

Not to mention Bennett and Lieberman, who are both in fact to the “right” of Netanyahu .

Meanwhile Netanyahu’s “right wing government” is wholly dependent on the very much NOT right wing and frankly antizionist charedi parties.

This whole framing of the “right” coalition and “centre/left” opposition is disingenuous. The inability to form a strong and stable 75-80 seat centre/right government excluding extremists and antizionists on both sides is due to the continuing presence of only one man. The day Netanyahu leaves politics is the day Israel will finally have what it desperately needs - a stable and competent leadership.

"stable 75-80 seat centre/right government excluding extremists and antizionists on both sides is due to the continuing presence of only one man"

That is logically impossible: it is due to two factors, not one, the presence of one man plus the refusal of center and right Zionist parties to work with him.

If either of those two factors goes away, a stable center right government is assured.

Which of the two will now step up and sacrifice its ambitions for the good of Israel?
