When I referred to Bibi as the left wing of his right wing government, I was referring to the government prior to National Unity joining it, and my comment above is only relevant to members of that government.

If Gantz and Eisenkot drop out of the current government, it will not fall right away. However, in this event it is almost certain that a vote of no confidence will be brought up in the Knesset, and not necessarily by the members of National Unity party (I am not sure, but I think any member of the Knesset can call for a vote of no confidence). Given the dropping popularity of Likud across the political spectrum, Bibi is unlikely to survive the vote.

I believe that in this event, Isaac Herzog will have to either call for a party other than Likud to form a new government, or call for new elections.

Hillary Clinton was right all along.... Think. Again. May 2024 #1
